Where can I access NSDUH data by immigration status or place of birth?

Immigration status information is only available in the restricted data. For simple cross-tabulations, you can use the multi-year files in the Data Analysis System (DAS), which allows users to analyze restricted NSDUH datasets concatenated over multiple years. IRIMMBORNUS is the best variable for immigration status; it indicates whether the respondent was born in the United States or not. Those born in US territories, including Puerto Rico, self-identified as to whether they were born in the United States or not.

For more detailed analysis, you can apply for access to restricted use NSDUH data through the interagency Standard Application Process (SAP) portal. However, disclosure controls may limit the analyses available.
