Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

I don't quite understand the question. In the household files (HR and PR) we have hv005, and it's the weight to use for data coming from the household survey. It's definitely true that some people who are eligible for the IR and MR files do not appear in those files. The weights v005 and mv005 adjust for that non-response. Can you be more specific about what you want to do?
