A lump-sum financial benefit that is granted for the birth or adoption of a child into large families or families which, for this reason, acquire said status, as well as into single-parent families and cases in which the mother or father has a degree of disability greater than or equal to 65%, as long as a certain level of income is not exceeded.

The benefit is not granted in the event of family foster care.

Children who give the entitlement to the benefit

The originators of this right will be children born or adopted after 16-11-07 into a large family or a family that, as a result of the birth or adoption, becomes large; by a single-parent family;  by a mother or father who has a disability equal to or greater than 65%;  provided that the child was born in Spain or the adoption was constituted or recognised by the competent Spanish authorities. To this end:

  • A child shall be considered as having been born,when he/she meets the provisions determined by Article 30 of the Civil Code: "The status of person is acquired following a live birth, having been fully removed from the mother's womb".

  • To be considered a large family, the provisions of Law 40/2003 of 18 November in the protection of large families, shall apply.

  • A single-parent family shall be understood as a family comprising “only one parent” with whom the child or adopted child lives and who is the sole breadwinner of said family.


Determination of the beneficiary

  • In the case of large  families, the beneficiary will be:
    • If the parents or foster parents live together, either of the parents or foster parents by mutual agreement. If no agreement is reached, the recipient will, where appropriate, be the mother.
    • If the parents or foster parents do not live together, the beneficiary will be the person who has guardianship and custody of the child.

  • In cases of single-parent families: the parent with whom the biological or adopted child lives and who is the only person in the family in receipt of income.
  • In cases of mothers or fathers with disabilities: the beneficiary will be the mother who proves a disability greater than or equal to 65%.
  • When the child has been orphaned following the death of both parents or foster parents or is abandoned, the beneficiary will be the person who has guardianship of the child.

Incompatibilities

  • When both parents or adoptive parents have the same circumstances needed to become recipients, the right to receive the benefit will only be granted to one of them.


  • The benefit is incompatible with the parents or adoptive parents receiving any other similar benefit established for the other state welfare protection schemes (MUFACE, ISFAS, MUGEJU?).


  • When the beneficiaries have the right to the same benefit from several state welfare protection schemes for the same originator, they must choose one of them.
