Delayed Sampling of Recent Immigrants in the Current Population Survey

Abstract

TThe Congressional Budget Office (CBO, 2024) forecasts an elevated level of net immigration to the United States of nearly 15 million people between 2021 and 2026. How immigration impacts employment statistics has therefore received increased attention recently (e.g., Edelberg and Watson, 2024a). There is substantial concern that labor market surveys—and in particular the Current Population Survey (CPS)—may not fully reflect the economic experiences of the recently immigrated population and thus may incorrectly summarize broader economic conditions.
