We file your application for the Ingreso Mínimo Vital (minimum living income) with the INSS (the Spanish National Social Security Institute) under Ley 19/2021 + RD 789/2022. We automatically calculate the guaranteed income according to the make-up of your unidad de convivencia (household unit): 30 % more for each member from the second onwards, capped at 220 %, plus a 22 % supplement if the family is a single-parent one. We check the age requirements (23 or over, or 18 or over with dependent children) and legal residence (1 year or more, with exemptions for victims of trafficking, victims of gender-based violence and refugees), we check which other benefits you receive (the PNC, the non-contributory pension, and the RAI, the active integration income, are both compatible: you do not have to give them up) and the asset thresholds. We tell you exactly how much you are entitled to per month.

Practical guide: Benefits in Spain when you have no income: IMV, the over 52 subsidy and the lump sum payment. Requirements, deadlines and the steps, explained.

Prerequisites we also handle for you

This procedure needs documents that we also obtain. If you are missing any, ask us for it here and come back once you have it:

And whatever a third party provides, we arrange it

  • Traducción jurada (sworn translation) into Spanish
  • Apostilla or legalisation of a foreign document

You do not have to look for anyone: we coordinate it. As it is provided by a third party it is quoted separately and does not go inside the price of this procedure, and we tell you the amount before ordering it.

Legal basis and things to bear in mind

  • Framework: Ley 19/2021 of 20 December, as amended by RDL 6/2022, RDL 2/2024 and Ley 1/2026 of 8 April. RD 789/2022 is not the general implementing regulation: it covers only compatibility with income from work. The amounts come from each year's uprating Real Decreto (for 2026, RD 39/2026).
  • Nature: a non-contributory, structural benefit; a subjective right managed by the INSS (not by the SEPE).
  • Requirements for access (art. 10), and only these two: one year of legal and effective residence, and economic vulnerability. Having applied for other benefits first is NOT a requirement: that came from RDL 20/2020 and did not carry over into Ley 19/2021.
  • Age of the holder (art. 5.2): 23 or over, or 18 or over if emancipated with dependent children, a victim of trafficking or of gender-based violence, a refugee or a person granted asylum.
  • Residence: 1 continuous year of legal and effective residence in Spain. Victims of trafficking, victims of gender-based violence, refugees and returnees are exempt.
  • Guaranteed income (art. 13.2 + anexo I, the first annex): for a single member, 100 % of the annual amount of the pensiones no contributivas (non-contributory pensions) divided by twelve, so it is uprated every January. Scale: +30 % for each additional member FROM THE SECOND ONWARDS, capped at 220 %. It does not distinguish adults from children. On top of that, a 22 % single-parent supplement.
  • Maximum assets (art. 11.3 + anexo II, the second annex): three times the guaranteed income of a single adult, on a scale of +0,4 per additional member capped at 2,6. Your main home is EXCLUDED from the calculation.
  • Compatibility: COMPATIBLE with income from employment or self-employment (there are employment incentives), with the PNC (non-contributory pension) and with the Renta Activa de Inserción (active integration income). Pensions, contributory and non-contributory alike, do not bar the IMV: they are deducted from the guaranteed income and the IMV is granted for the difference (art. 13.6). It is INCOMPATIBLE only with the dependent-child benefit (DT 6.ª, where you get to choose) and with the old Ley 45/1960 assistance pensions (DT 9.ª).
  • Being registered as a jobseeker is NOT a requirement. The old art. 36.1.g demanded it and DF 35.2 of RDL 6/2022 removed it; DA 11.ª now has the INSS pass your details on so the employment service registers you automatically.
  • INSS deadline: 6 months from the application reaching its register; if no express decision is notified within it, the application is deemed refused (art. 28.3 Ley 19/2021). It has financial effect from the first day of the month following the application (art. 14).
  • A compulsory annual review of your circumstances: fresh evidence of income, assets and the make-up of the unidad de convivencia (household unit).
  • Connection: if the claimant receives an unemployment subsidy or contributory benefit, the IMV can top it up; we compare the options before filing.
