This is one of the questions we get asked the most, so we have lots of information on how an IVA works.
IVAs are a scheme that was introduced by the UK Government in 1986 to help consumers get on top of their finances and reduce debts. IVAs involve you only paying what you can afford monthly towards your debts, whilst your creditors also agree to write off a portion. This solution lasts five years but provides a solution for many consumers who would prefer an alternative to things like Bankruptcy or Debt Management Plans.

Our team of experts help thousands of families get their finances back on track with an IVA.
