Canary Islanders receiving Vital Minimum Income can apply for an extra €700 aid

In today's world, where every euro counts, new financial aid can make a significant difference. For many families, public assistance isn't just helpful, it's essential. With this in mind, there's good news for those in the Canary Islands who already receive the Minimum Vital Income (IMV): an additional financial aid is now available.

This new €700 aid is designed to give extra support to those already on the IMV. Importantly, you can receive both benefits at the same time, offering more financial security for families in need. For families with children, this amount can increase to €784, providing even more help.

How to Apply

To apply for this aid, you need to download the official form from the Social Security website, fill it out with your personal and financial details, and include necessary documents like ID and proof of residence.

There are several ways to submit your application: online via the Electronic Headquarters using a digital certificate, Cl@ve, in person at Social Security offices (by appointment), or in some cases, by post if allowed. After applying, you can track your application's progress online.

Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for this extra aid, you must:

  • Have been legally residing in Spain for at least a year before applying.
  • Have income and assets below the limits set for the IMV.
  • Declare all compatible benefits to avoid overlaps.

This initiative offers a real chance to ease financial strain without losing any existing aid. For many families in the Canary Islands, this could be the extra support needed to manage their finances with a bit more ease.
