Annual Statistical Supplement, 2016

Benefits in Current-Payment Status

Summary

NOTE: DATA BY RACE

In earlier years, 12 of this section's 20 tables included breakdowns by race. The availability of the race data and the definitions of the race categories varied over time. These concerns about data quality and consistency led to the removal of race breakdowns from this section beginning in the 2011 Supplement.

Although the data quality issues are not yet resolved, Excel versions of those 12 tables are available here with the race breakdowns restored. Users are advised to interpret data by race with caution.

For more information, see “Why Researchers Now Rely on Surveys for Race Data on OASDI and SSI Programs: A Comparison of Four Major Surveys.”
