Description

Definition
For men who have ever been married or lived with a woman, YRSTO1STMARMN (MV512) reports the number of years from the start of the man's first marriage/union to the date of the survey interview. The calculation is made using century month codes for both dates.

For the month and year of first marriage/union, see MAR1STMOMN (MV507) and MAR1STYRMN (MV508) respectively.
