Question label:

Current partner lived apart

Question text:

When we last interviewed you on [ff_intdate], you told us you had a spouse/partner that you were in a relationship with but didn't live with. Can we also just check, was/is this the same person as your current husband/wife {if HHGRID.MARSTAT = 2} partner {if HGRID.MARSTAT = 3 | HHGRID.LiveWith = 1}?

Question universe:

if [ff_ivlolw = 1 | ff_everint = 1] // Interviewed at prior wave or has been interviewed previously
And if [RelUp > 2] // Not living with same spouse/partner as at last wave
And if [Cohab = 1] // Has had cohabitation spell(s) since last interview
And if [CohabN > 0] // Number of cohabitation spells given
And if [(CohabN = MAX CohabN) & ((HHGRID.MARSTAT = 2|3)| (HHGRID.LiveWith = 1))] // On the last cohabitation spell and is currently married or civil partnership or living with someone as a couple
And if [Cohab = 1 & ((HHGRID.Livesp = 2|3)| (HHGRID.LiveWith = 1)) & ff_Ncrr1 = 1 & Currpart= 1] // Has had cohabitation spell(s) since last interview AND Currently married or civil partnership or living with someone as a couple AND had a non-co-resident relationship last interview AND cohabitation spell is current spouse/partner
