We would like to add records held by HM Revenue and Customs, or HMRC, to the answers you have given in this study.

The HMRC records contain information about your current and previous employment, your income, National Insurance contributions and tax credits. * We will not send HMRC the answers you have given in this study. * HMRC will send us your records. These will contain an anonymous identification number but not your name, address, sex or date of birth. * We will add the HMRC records to the answers you have given in this study. * We will make the combined anonymous data available for academic and policy research purposes only. * Access to the data will be restricted and controlled, to make sure that researchers use the information responsibly and safely. * This will not affect the way that you deal with HMRC in any way. Please read this leaflet for further information. Let me know if you have any questions. Do you give permission for us to pass your name, address, sex and date of birth to HMRC for this purpose?
