For unemployed individuals aged over 52, there is renewed optimism on the financial horizon in Spain. The SEPE allowance for citizens over 52, combined with other financial assistance, offers a meaningful opportunity to raise monthly income and ease the financial pressure faced by this group.
Combining aid for people over 52 with other benefits
SEPE has opened the door for those who already receive unemployment benefits for people over 52, currently set at 480 euros per month, to access additional benefits that complement their situation. These extra supports, administered by organizations other than SEPE, can play a pivotal role in improving living standards for beneficiaries.
These are subsidy-compatible benefits for people over 52 years of age
The only two benefits that can be combined with the subsidy for people over 52 are the Minimum Living Income (IMV) and the Minimum Insertion Income (RMI). The following explains how each aid can enhance the SEPE subsidy when eligible.
This is the Minimum Living Income (IMV): the keys to this benefit
-
To qualify for IMV, applicants must fall below defined income thresholds. See the IMV requirements for details (Source: IMV guidelines published by public authorities).
-
Once the application is approved, the IMV amount is added to the existing SEPE subsidy, increasing overall support.
Keys to Minimum Income Insertion (RMI)
-
The amount and qualification criteria for RMI vary by region, since RMI is administered by the Social Services of each autonomous community.
-
This benefit is designed to complement the SEPE subsidy for people aged 52 and over, thereby boosting the existing financial support.
How will these aids, compatible with the over 52 year old allowance, be collected?
Each program has its own procedures and criteria. For those considering applying for these benefits in line with the SEPE subsidy for people over 52, it is essential to learn the specific requirements and follow the application steps precisely.
The combination of the over 52 subsidy with IMV or RMI represents a significant opportunity to improve the financial situation of many unemployed individuals in this age group. However, it remains crucial that interested parties are well informed about each aid, understand how to apply, and meet all necessary conditions.
