Timeliness and time lag - final results
The data is published in December in the reference year or in January the following year.
In recent years the publication has been moved from September 2016 (SILC 2015) to May 2017 (SILC 2016) to December 2017 (SILC 2017). SILC 2018 was published in December 2018. SILC 2019 was published in January 2020. The 2020-data was released in February 2021. The delay was caused due to extended deadlines for filing the final tax statements due to COVID-19.
The 2022-data was released according to plan in December 2022. The 2023-data was released according to plan in December 2023. The 2024-data was released according to plan in December 2024.
