Is the Minimum Vital Income compatible with working?
Yes, the MVI is compatible with work. There's a 'support to inclusion' complement that allows you to combine MVI with earnings from employment for up to 3 years (extendable). If you are employed and receive MVI, you must inform Social Security of your earnings.
Can an entrepreneur apply for the Minimum Vital Income?
Yes, entrepreneurs can apply if their net earnings are below the access threshold. The calculation of income includes the declared economic activity revenues from the previous year's tax return.

Yes, foreigners with legal residence in Spain (with residency or work permit) who have resided in the country for at least one year can apply.
What happens if my income increases after receiving the MVI?
You must inform Social Security of the change. If your income exceeds the MVI threshold, the benefit will be reduced or terminated proportionally. Hiding it may lead to repayment of overpaid amounts and penalties.
