IVA FAQs
If approved, an IVA could help reduce your monthly repayments, freeze interest and charges, and stop further creditor action. You make one affordable monthly payment based on what you can realistically afford, and any remaining unsecured debt included in the IVA is written off when it is successfully completed.
An IVA is a legally binding agreement between you and your creditors to repay what you can realistically afford over a fixed period, usually five years. If successfully completed, any remaining unsecured debt included in the IVA is written off.
An IVA combines eligible unsecured debts into one affordable monthly payment. Unlike a debt consolidation loan, you do not borrow more money. If successfully completed, any remaining unsecured debt included in the IVA is written off.
Yes. An IVA will affect your credit rating and usually remains on your credit file for six years from the date it is approved. Checking whether you may qualify will not affect your credit score.
IVA fees only apply if you decide to proceed and your IVA is approved. They are paid as part of your agreed monthly payment, not in addition to it. Your payment is based on what you can realistically afford, and all fees will be clearly explained before you decide whether to go ahead.
Most IVAs last for five years. If you are a homeowner and cannot release equity, the IVA may be extended by up to 12 months. Once the IVA is successfully completed, remaining unsecured debt included in the IVA is written off.
No. You do not have to be employed, but you need a regular income or money available each month to make affordable repayments. This could include wages, self-employed income, pension income or certain benefits.
No. You can apply for an IVA whether you are a homeowner, tenant, living with family or living in another arrangement. Your circumstances will be reviewed before any recommendation is made.
If an IVA is not approved or is not suitable, other debt solutions may still be available. Your circumstances can be reviewed and, where appropriate, you may be referred for advice on alternative options.
An IVA is a formal debt solution and may not be suitable for everyone. It will affect your credit rating, be recorded on the public Insolvency Register, and you must keep to the agreed payments. If your IVA fails, you may still owe money to your creditors and could be at risk of further action.
You may be able to stop an IVA, but this can have serious consequences. Your IVA may fail, creditors may be able to take further action, and fees or costs may be deducted from payments already made. You should speak to your insolvency practitioner before making any decision.
