Description
Definition
EDYEARSNOW (HV124) reports the household member's education in single years during the current school year. Household members who are not currently in school are coded as "0." Values in EDYEARSNOW may be different from those in EDYEARS (HV108), as EDYEARS reports the household member's education in completed years. See EDYEARS (HV108) for more information on the construction of EDYEARSNOW.
