Highlights

  • Male immigrant taxfilers show a higher incidence of wage and salary employment than females.
  • Recent arrival cohorts of males have a higher share with wage and salary jobs in 2012 compared to earlier cohorts, but female immigrant taxfilers who are recent arrivals do not show a higher share compared to females in earlier arrival cohorts.
