Frequently asked questions

How much money does the Minimum Vital Income give in 2026?
The amount of MVI varies depending on the composition of the household unit. For one person: €470.82 per month (2026). For two adults without children: €659.51 per month. The amount increases with each child. These amounts are updated annually based on the IPC.
Can you work and receive the Minimum Vital Income?
Yes, MVI is compatible with working. There is a 'support to inclusion' supplement that allows compatibility with earnings from employment for 3 years (extendable). If you work and receive MVI, you must inform Social Security of your income.
Can an independent worker apply for the Minimum Vital Income?
Yes, independent workers can apply for the MVI if their net earnings are below the access threshold. The calculation of earnings includes declared economic activity revenues from the previous year's tax return.
Can a foreigner apply for the MVI?
Yes, foreigners with legal residency in Spain (with residence card or valid work and residence permit) who have resided in the country for at least one year can apply.
What happens if my income increases after receiving the Minimum Vital Income?
You must inform Social Security of any changes. If your earnings exceed the MVI threshold, the benefit will cease or be reduced proportionally. Concealing it may lead to repayment of wrongly received amounts and penalties.
