Performance Narrative [Text Block]
The bar chart and performance table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The Fund has adopted the performance of the Oppenheimer International Growth Fund/VA (the predecessor fund) as the result of a reorganization of the predecessor fund into the Fund, which was consummated after the close of business on May 24, 2019 (the “Reorganization”). Prior to the Reorganization, the Fund had not yet commenced operations. The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Series I shares of the Fund and the Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund from year to year as of December 31. The performance table compares the predecessor fund’s and the Fund’s performance to that of a broad measure of market performance. The bar chart and performance table below do not reflect charges assessed in connection with your variable product; if they did, the performance shown would be lower. The Fund’s (and the predecessor fund’s) past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.
The returns shown for periods ending on or prior to May 24, 2019 are those of the Non-Service Shares and Service Shares of the predecessor fund, and are not offered by the Fund. The Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into Series I shares of the Fund and the Service Shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into the Series II shares of the Fund after the close of business on May 24, 2019. Series I shares’ and Series II shares’ returns of the Fund will be different from the Non-Service Shares’ and the Service Shares’ returns of the predecessor fund as they have different expenses.
Fund performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. Performance returns would be lower without applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
All Fund performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and the effect of the Fund’s expenses.
The Series I shares and Series II shares invest in the same portfolio of securities and will have substantially similar performance, except to the extent that the expenses borne by each share class differ. Series II shares have higher expenses (and therefore lower performance) resulting from its Rule 12b-1 plan, which provides for a maximum fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets of the Fund).
Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at www.invesco.com/us.
Performance Past Does Not Indicate Future [Text] The Fund’s (and the predecessor fund’s) past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

Performance Narrative [Text Block]
The bar chart and performance table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The Fund has adopted the performance of the Oppenheimer Discovery Mid Cap Growth Fund/VA (the predecessor fund) as the result of a reorganization of the predecessor fund into the Fund, which was consummated after the close of business on May 24, 2019 (the “Reorganization”). Prior to the Reorganization, the Fund had not yet
commenced operations. The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Series I shares of the Fund and the Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund from year to year as of December 31. The performance table compares the predecessor fund’s and the Fund’s performance to that of a broad measure of market performance and an additional index with characteristics relevant to the Fund. The bar chart and performance table below do not reflect charges assessed in connection with your variable product; if they did, the performance shown would be lower. The Fund’s (and the predecessor fund’s) past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.
The returns shown for periods ending on or prior to May 24, 2019 are those of the Non-Service Shares and Service Shares of the predecessor fund, and are not offered by the Fund. The Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into Series I shares of the Fund and the Service Shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into the Series II shares of the Fund after the close of business on May 24, 2019. Series I shares’ and Series II shares’ returns of the Fund will be different from the Non-Service Shares’ and the Service Shares’ returns of the predecessor fund as they have different expenses.
Fund performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. Performance returns would be lower without applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
All Fund performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and the effect of the Fund’s expenses.
The Series I shares and Series II shares invest in the same portfolio of securities and will have substantially similar performance, except to the extent that the expenses borne by each share class differ. Series II shares have higher expenses (and therefore lower performance) resulting from its Rule 12b-1 plan, which provides for a maximum fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets of the Fund).
Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at www.invesco.com/us.

The bar chart and performance table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Series I shares of the Fund from year to year as of December 31. The performance table compares the Fund's performance to that of a style-specific benchmark and a broad-based securities market benchmark (in that order). The bar chart and performance table below do not reflect charges assessed in connection with your variable product; if they did, the performance shown would be lower. The Fund's past performance is not necessarily an indication of its future performance.
Fund performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. Performance returns would be lower without applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
All Fund performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and the effect of the Fund's expenses.
The Series I shares and Series II shares invest in the same portfolio of securities and will have substantially similar performance, except to the extent that the expenses borne by each share class differ. Series II shares have higher expenses (and therefore lower performance) resulting from its Rule 12b-1 plan, which provides for a maximum fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets of the Fund).
Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at www.invesco.com/us.

The bar chart and performance table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Series I shares of the Fund from year to year as of December 31. The bar chart and performance table below do not reflect charges assessed in connection with your variable product; if they did, the performance shown would be lower.

Fund performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. Performance returns would be lower without applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
All Fund performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and the effect of the Fund’s expenses.
Effective April 29, 2016, the Fund changed its investment strategy from a prime money market strategy to a strategy that classified the Fund as a “government money market fund,” as defined by Rule 2a-7, and simultaneously changed its name to Invesco V.I. Government Money Market Fund. Performance shown prior to that date reflects the Fund’s former prime money market strategy, which permitted investments in certain types of securities that as a government money market fund, the Fund is no longer permitted to hold. Consequently, the performance information below would have been different if the current investment limitations had been in effect during the period prior to the Fund’s conversion to a government money market fund.
The Series I shares and Series II shares invest in the same portfolio of securities and will have substantially similar performance, except to the extent that the expenses borne by each share class differ. Series II shares have higher expenses (and therefore lower performance) resulting from its Rule 12b-1 plan, which provides for a maximum fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets of the Fund).

The returns shown for periods ending on or prior to May 24, 2019 are those of the Non-Service Shares and Service Shares of the predecessor fund, and are not offered by the Fund. The Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into Series I shares of the Fund and the Service Shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into the Series II shares of the Fund after the close of business on May 24, 2019. Series I shares’ and Series II shares’ returns of the Fund will be different from the Non-Service Shares’ and the Service Shares’ returns of the predecessor fund as they have different expenses.
Fund performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. Performance returns would be lower without applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
All Fund performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and the effect of the Fund’s expenses.

The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Series I shares of the Fund from year to year as of December 31. The performance table compares the Fund's performance to that of a style-specific benchmark and a broad-based securities market benchmark (in that order). The bar chart and performance table below do not reflect charges assessed in connection with your variable product; if they did, the performance shown would be lower. The Fund's past performance is not necessarily an indication of its future performance.
Fund performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. Performance returns would be lower without applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
All Fund performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and the effect of the Fund's expenses.
The Series I shares and Series II shares invest in the same portfolio of securities and will have substantially similar performance, except to the extent that the expenses borne by each share class differ. Series II shares have higher expenses (and therefore lower performance) resulting from its Rule 12b-1 plan, which provides for a maximum fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets of the Fund).

Performance Narrative [Text Block]
The bar chart and performance table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The Fund has adopted the performance of the Oppenheimer Government Money Fund/VA (the predecessor fund) as the result of a reorganization of the predecessor fund into the Fund, which was consummated after the close of business on May 24, 2019 (the “Reorganization”). Prior to the Reorganization, the Fund had not yet commenced operations. The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Series I shares of the Fund and the Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund from year to year as of December 31. The bar chart and performance table below do not reflect charges assessed in connection with your variable product; if they did, the performance shown would be lower. The Fund’s (and the predecessor fund’s) past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.
The returns shown for periods ending on or prior to May 24, 2019 are those of the Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund, which are not offered by the Fund. The Non-Service Shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into Series I shares of the Fund after the close of business on May 24, 2019. Series I shares’ and Series II shares’ returns of the Fund will be different from the Non-Service Shares’ returns of the predecessor fund as they have different expenses.
Fund performance reflects any applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements. Performance returns would be lower without applicable fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
All Fund performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and the effect of the Fund’s expenses.
Effective April 29, 2016, the predecessor fund changed its investment strategy from a prime money market strategy to a strategy that classified the predecessor fund as a “government money market fund,” as defined by Rule 2a-7. Performance shown prior to that date reflects the predecessor fund’s former prime money market strategy, which permitted investments in certain types of securities that as a government money market fund, the predecessor fund (and therefore the Fund) is no longer permitted to hold. Consequently, the performance information below would have been different if the current investment limitations had been in effect during the period prior to the predecessor fund’s conversion to a government money market fund.
The Series I shares and Series II shares invest in the same portfolio of securities and will have substantially similar performance, except to the extent that the expenses borne by each share class differ. Series II shares have higher expenses (and therefore lower performance) resulting from its Rule 12b-1 plan, which provides for a maximum fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets of the Fund).
