How to obtain the large family title

When a new family member is on the way, everything is about preparations, nerves, and excitement... However, we plan everything except for what seems the most complicated, yes, the procedures that must be carried out once the little one is born. If we add to this that it is our third child and we can qualify for the title of a large family, the procedures increase. Therefore, in this POST, we have summarized all the information to make obtaining the title easy.

When is a family considered large and eligible for the title?

The only requirement to be considered a large family is to be formed by one or two parents with three or more children (be they common or not), must be proven by the large family card that is issued to each member of the family unit. This card is valid throughout the national territory, along with the ID card, NIE...

Also included are the following cases:

• The two parents with two children, if the first ones are disabled or if one of them exceeds 65% disability or is unable to work.
• Separated or divorced parents with 3 or more children (whether common or not), even if they are in different family units, as long as they are financially dependent.
• Single-parent families due to widowhood with two dependant children.
• Families with a disabled spouse and two dependent children

The conditions to be able to apply for this title are:

• Being single and under 21 years old (25 if studying or on track towards a job position)
• In the case of temporary separation due to studies, work, medical treatment, rehabilitation, or other similar reasons, it does not break the cohabitation between parents and children (as determined by regulations).
• They must depend on their parents economically, meaning the child's income must not exceed the minimum wage. The child supports the family when their ancestors are not active, incapacitated for work, retired, or over 65 years old and do not exceed the minimum wage.

"The title is lost when the previous conditions cease to be met, thus no longer belonging to the large family status."

What is the title of special large family?

Once you meet the previous requirements, you must determine which of the following categories you belong to:

• Special category: 5 children or more, or 4 children if at least 3 of them come from birth, adoption, or permanent foster care, or when the annual income of the family unit divided by the number of members does not exceed 75% of the minimum wage.
• General category3 children or 2 (if one of them is disabled)
