Revisions to the "Sixth Informal Update on Status of ACS 2006-2010 Special EEO File" have been posted.

Table of Changes to Census/SOC Crosswalk (PDF)
Complete (Revised) Census/SOC Crosswalk (PDF)

Per Joseph Donovan:

"In summary, there were 23 changes. Seven of them reflected an improvement - by Census - in titles for groups of occupations and 13 of them contained information on which occupations were contained in an occupational code that contained an X rather than a number.

For example, in the previous crosswalk, the Census code of 1020 for software developers indicated that the matching SOC codes were in the 15-113X series. In this version, the table indicates that 15-113X consists of a combination of 15-1132 and 15-1133. Hopefully, this updated and expanded crosswalk will be helpful."
