Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
Usually, if the variable for husband's level of education is NA, it's because there is no husband. However, you might be able to reduce the NA cases somewhat by doing what you say.
In the CR file, partners are given on a single record if they name each other (with v034 and mv034). For those pairs, the characteristics of the husband, as reported by the husband himself, are right on the wife's record. You could sort the CR file by v001 v002 v003 and merge the husband' data into the IR file, at least for those women who are in the CR file.
