• Pensions.
• Cash and in-kind benefits received from social welfare and insurance programs.

The report uses data from Waves 2 through 14 of the survey's 2008 panel, which covered the years 2009-2012.

The Census Bureau will release additional Survey of Income and Program Participation briefs from the 2014 survey panel that highlights other relevant topics over the coming months. Previously released briefs, reports and table packages from the Survey of Income and Program Participation are available on the program webpage.
