Introduction
Both cleaning and doing housework are essential to the smooth running of the home. However, these tasks are often not financially remunerated, especially if they are carried out internally. That is why in Spain there is an aid that is very useful for housewives.
Information on help for housewives
According to reports, these types of tasks are usually performed mostly by women. In addition, the situation of housewives in Spain is usually complicated, as they often do not have sufficient income if they do not have an additional job. That is why these aid measures are indispensable.
Requirements to apply for help
One of the most prominent aids is the Active Income of Insertion (RAI), which consists of an economic benefit of 480 euros per month that can be received for 11 months. However, it should be noted that this help is not available to everyone, but is aimed at certain profiles. To grant it, factors such as family situation and unemployment are taken into account.
The full requirements for applying for this aid can be found on the SEPE (Public State Employment Service) page. Some of the main conditions are as follows:
– Not having previously received the Active Insertion Income.
– Being unemployed and registered as a job seeker.
– The applicant’s income cannot exceed 75% of the Interprofessional Minimum Wage (SMI), which is currently 850.50 euros per month. In addition, if the applicant has a spouse and/or children under the age of 26 or older with a disability, the income of the entire household divided between all members cannot exceed 75% of the SMI either.
– Be under 65 years old.
How to apply for help
To apply for this financial aid of 480 euros, you can make an appointment through the SEPE or submit the application in person using the official model. It is also possible to do it online, as long as you have a digital certificate or Cl@ve PIN. This procedure can be carried out through the “Access Requests” section of the SEPE website. Please note that the response will not be immediate and may take up to a month.
