The Longitudinal Immigration Database combines linked administrative immigration and tax data files. It is a comprehensive source of data on the socio-economic outcomes of the immigrant taxfiler population in Canada. In partnership with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) and the national network of Local Immigration Partnerships (LIP), the Community Data Program has acquired a set of data tables tracking the mobility and economic outcomes of Canada's newcomer population over several years.

This catalogue entry is for IMDB Table 6 out of 10 and contains data for Census Subdivision geographies. IMDB data tables are available at the Census Subdivision and Census Division levels as well as for a number of custom LIP boundaries. The table contents are described below, by table number:

1. LIP boundaries - Immigrant taxfiler income and mobility by sex, socio-demographic profile, admission year and tax year, for Canada, select provinces/territories and partnerships
