Frequently asked questions

How much money does the Minimum Income Guarantee provide in 2026?
The amount of MIG varies according to the composition of the household unit. For a single person: €470.82 per month (2026). For two adults without children: €659.51 per month. The amount increases with each child in the household. These amounts are updated annually based on the IPC.
Is the Minimum Income Guarantee compatible with working?
Yes, MIG is compatible with work. There's a 'support for employment inclusion' supplement that allows combining MIG with earnings from work during 3 years (extendable). If you earn and receive MIG, you must report your income to Social Security.
Can an entrepreneur apply for the Minimum Income Guarantee?
Yes, entrepreneurs can apply if their net earnings are below the access threshold. Earnings from economic activity declared in the previous year's tax return are included in the calculation of income.
Can a foreigner apply for the MIG?
Yes, foreigners with legal residency in Spain (with residence card or valid work permit) who have resided in the country for at least one year can apply.
What happens if my income increases after receiving MIG?
You must inform Social Security of the change. If your income exceeds the MIG threshold, the benefit will be terminated or reduced proportionally. Concealing it may lead to refunding of incorrectly paid amounts and sanctions.
