Hello,

Yes that would normally the case, ever married would then be currently living in union/living with a man and formerly in union/ living with a man. Please see variables V501 and/or V502. Please note that India is a special case where never married includes those who are married but where gauna has not yet been performed.
If you plan on doing fertility analysis then there may be some extra complications in this case, because you would then need so called all women factors, which are not ready available in all women samples.
