In terms of labor rights, a lot of progress may have been made in recent decades, but unfortunately there remains an indisputable fact: women continue to take care of household chores. I’m not saying it, the UN estimates that they work up to 2.5 times more than men on these tasks.
And what is worse: there is no charge for this type of work. They are required, but are not charged. So the Government of Spain has launched a measure to try to alleviate this imbalance: aid of 501 euros per month for all Housewives which can be extended for 11 months. Let’s see how to request it from an iPhone.
Requirements to request the Active Reintegration Income from your iPhone
This help has been called Active Reintegration Income (or RAI), and you can take advantage of any down time you have to request this help from your iPhone. Of course, you have to meet some requirements:
- You must be under 65 years of age and unemployed. They also do not give you help if you are in a registration period.
- That the income of the entire family unit, including children under 26 years of age, does not exceed 75% of the 1,080 euros of the minimum interprofessional salary.
- That your own income does not exceed 75% of the minimum wage either.
- Not having received an Active Insertion Income in the past.
On a technical level, you must install an electronic certificate on the iPhone or have the Cl@ve PIN properly configured on the phone. They are the official forms of identification of the state that will help you to be able to request that help without problems.
How to request the aid of 501 euros
Once you are sure you meet the requirements, access this web page from your iPhone and scroll down until you find the ‘Access Requests’ button:
It will load a website in which you must go to the sidebar to choose an identification method:
Follow the steps to identify yourself with the Cl@ve PIN or with the electronic certificate. If you meet the requirements, it will load a website in which you simply you must fill in the application data and send it. If you do not meet the requirements, you will be informed of this. In my case, for example, the website clearly tells me that “I am not appearing as a job seeker”.
Remember that you can also check your work life easily online if you lack data in this regard, so there is no problem to make these checks before requesting help. If for whatever reason you cannot complete this application, you can also make an appointment at the SEPE to do so in person by printing and filling out this PDF.
