Frequently asked questions

How much money does the Minimum Vital Income provide in 2026?
The MVI amount varies depending on household composition. For one person: €470.82/month (2026). For two adults without children: €659.51/month. The amount increases with each dependent child. These amounts are updated annually with the IPC.
Is the MVI compatible with working?
Yes, the MVI is compatible with work. There is a 'support for inclusion' supplement that allows you to combine it with earnings from employment during 3 years (extendable). If you work and receive the MVI, you must report your income to Social Security.
Can a self-employed person apply for the Minimum Vital Income?
Yes, self-employed individuals 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 income calculation.
Can foreigners apply for the MVI?
Yes, those with legal residency in Spain (with residence card or work permit) who have lived in the country for at least a year can apply.
What happens if my income increases after receiving the Minimum Vital Income?
You must inform Social Security of the change. If your earnings exceed the MVI threshold, the benefit will be reduced or terminated proportionally. Concealing it may lead to repayment of wrongly received amounts and penalties.
