The Minimum Vital Income (IMV) has reached 199,118 Andalusian households in which 596,431 people live, according to the statistics published by the National Institute of Social Security (INSS) last June. Throughout Spain, the IMV has reached 646,084 households in which 1,868,172 people live.
This benefit, which is paid by the Social Security, is having a special impact on the reduction of child poverty since, of the total beneficiaries in Andalusia, 42.5% are minors (253,885).
In addition, if we take into account the number of households, in almost 72% there is at least one minor (144,212) and of the total beneficiaries, 53.7% are women (320,722).
Regarding the number of benefits with the Child Support Supplement (CAPI), there are already 126,338. The ICSC, which entered into force in January 2022, is an aid of 115 euros per household per month for children from 0 to 3 years old; of 80.5 euros per month for each child between 3 and 6 years old and of 57.5 euros per month for each child between 6 and 18 years old.
Entry into force of the employment incentive
With the beginning of the year 2023, the employment incentive came into force, which reinforces the set of policies that make up the IMV and which is oriented to the beneficiary that enters the labor market or increases the number of hours of employment, in the case that he is already working, is guaranteed that his disposable income is higher than what he would have had without incentive, with an increase that is diminishing as labor returns increase. The incentive is calculated ex officio when the IMV is reviewed, in the event that there are changes in the income of the recipient's work.
