Survey of Personal Incomes, 2014-2015: Public Use Tape

Listed in CESSDA Data Catalogue

<P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>The <em>Survey of Personal Incomes</em> (SPI) is based on information held by HM Revenue and Customs tax offices on individuals who could be liable to UK income tax.

Description

It is carried out annually by HMRC and covers income assessable to tax for each tax year. Not all of them are taxpayers because the operation of personal reliefs and allowances may remove them from liability.

Where income exceeds the threshold for operation of Pay-As-You-Earn (PAYE), the survey provides the most comprehensive and accurate official source of data on personal incomes. <br> <br> The SPI is compiled to provide a quantified evidence base from which to cost proposed changes to tax rates, personal allowances and other tax reliefs for Treasury Ministers. It is used to inform policy decisions within HMRC and the Treasury, as well as for tax modelling and forecasting purposes.

In addition, it is used to provide summary information for the National Accounts that are prepared by the Office for National Statistics. Finally, it is used to provide information to Members of Parliament, other Government Departments, companies, organisation and individuals.<br> <br> The UK Data Archive currently holds the Public Use Tape (PUT) data for 1985-86 and 1995-96 onwards (data for 2008-09 is currently unavailable).

For further details of sampling and coverage criteria, see documentation. Further information about the SPI, including income tax and personal incomes statistics, is available on the&nbsp;GOV.UK <a title="Statistics about personal incomes" href="gov.uk/government/collections/personal-incomes-statistics">Statistics about personal incomes</a> webpage.<br> <br>
