Which types of income/assets are accepted according to the official source?

The page identifies assured income and lists a bank statement from a bank in Rwanda. It does not say which income or assets count, or set a balance threshold.

Limits of the record
  • The page names a Rwandan bank statement but does not enumerate eligible income or asset types.

What income, savings or financial-resources threshold applies and how does family affect it where officially specified?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm an income, savings or financial-resources threshold.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • No monetary threshold or family adjustment is stated on the page.

Can the holder work locally, run a business or perform other economic activity? What is the family position?

For its retiree example, the DGIE describes a foreigner who does not intend to be employed in Rwanda. The page does not set out business rights or a rule for accompanying family.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • The page does not specify broader work/business rights or family treatment; the retiree description is not expanded into a general prohibition for every assured-income applicant.

How long is the status granted, what is required for renewal, what physical-presence obligations matter, and what longer-term residence direction exists?

K is listed as valid for up to two years. Renewal requires a retirement certificate, application letter, Rwandan bank statement for the six preceding months and local medical insurance. The official page states no physical-presence test or longer-term residence route.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • The page does not state a presence threshold or onward settlement route.

These are the answers currently recorded in the catalogue. A missing or partial answer is not an eligibility decision.
