The Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Female is an award presented annually by Film Independent. It is given in honor of an actress who has delivered an outstanding performance in a supporting role while working in an independent film.

Since its inception, the award has been given to 33 actresses. With 3 nominations, Allison Janney is the most nominated female in this category (finally winning one for her performance in I, Tonya).

Dianne Wiest, Penélope Cruz, Mo'Nique, Lupita Nyong'o Patricia Arquette, Allison Janney and Regina King are the only actresses to have won both this award and the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress the same year.
