In principle yes. you would need to make sure that the
imputations are done using information from your one
country that has missing nett (or gross I forgot) income,
but than afterwards include all the other countries. I 
guess you'll need to look very carefully at the data-
structure that -ice- is supposed to leave behind, and 
mimic that with the other countries. It is not impossible,
but be prepared to do a lot of reading, coding, 
experimenting, and checking before that works. After that
you can use -mim- (see -findit mim-) which alows panel
data models.

Hope this helps,
Maarten
