The Minimum Vital Income (IMV) has reached 646,084 households in which 1,868,172 people live, according to statistics published by the National Social Security Institute (INSS) until the end of June. This benefit, which is paid by the Social Security, is having a special impact on the reduction of child poverty since, of the total number of beneficiaries, 43% are minors (808,270). In addition, if we consider the number of households, in almost 67% there is at least one minor (435,369).
According to these data, in two out of three households the benefit holder is a woman and, if the total number of beneficiaries is taken into account, 54 per cent are women (1,010,939). 
Regarding the number of benefits with the Child Support Supplement (CAPI), there are already 383,053. 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.
