I am working on a similar project (same IR files multiple years). I did manage to append data for Bangladesh 1999 to 2014 starting with the 2014 data and had year as an indicator variable for each survey using Stata.
I plan to do multiple linear regression, binary logistic, and multinomial logistic regression for three different types outcomes.

Since I will be using "svy" command, I need to consider PSU (V021) and Strata (V022). However, I noticed the values (# of unique values and range) for V021 and V023 are not equal for each year.
I was wondering if that might be a problem for my analysis.

Thank you so much for your help
Baker
