1) Yes, all other surveys include this data for ever married women.
2) Please see the questionnaires for each survey. Both the date of birth and age are reported by the respondent during the interview. Sometimes some of that information is not fully reported, e.g. age may be reported without date of birth (or vice versa), or month of birth may not be reported but year of both is reported. All of this information is used to calculate and if necessary impute a century month code. The age in v012 is calculated from the imputed century month code of the date of birth and the date of interview. V012 will be the same as the age originally reported in almost all cases, but can differ in relatively rare cases where there are inconsistencies in the date and age reported. In almost all cases v012 is identical to the age reported in the women's questionnaire. HV105 is exactly as reported by the household respondent (who is not necessarily the head of the household), but this age is often reported by someone who does not really know the respondent's age, and can be off by a number of years. The household respondent can be any adult who lives in the household. See hv003 for the line number of the household respondent.
