He Elderly Care Bonus, a monthly financial aid of $32,991 granted by the Social Security Institute (IPS), provides important support to those who care for an elderly person.

Second, you must not reside in a long-term facility, such as nursing homes or nursing homes. Comply with these requirements guarantees approval of the bond and access to financial aid.
This bonus can be collected by up to three taxpayers simultaneously, which means that in that case the total monthly amount would amount to $98,973. Furthermore, the Elderly Care Bonus It does not constitute income nor is it taxable, so it is compatible with other state benefits that do not have the same purpose, providing additional support to those who need it.

It is not processed directly at the IPS offices. Likewise, the order of priority for the payment of the Elderly Care Bonus It is determined according to the severity of the dependency of the deceased, the seniority in the application and the socioeconomic classification of the same, according to the Social Registry of Households (RSH).
