Considering an IVA

A question about : Considering an IVA

I am a teacher and considering an IVA but I have a few questions.

1. Every year as a teacher we move up the pay scale and our pay increases. If I was to take on an IVA would my IVA payment increase in line with my salary increase (Roughly Ј100 increase)?

2. If they did want to increase the monthly payment couldn't I suggest that the cost of living has gone up and therefore the increase would be swallowed up anyway?

What are the chances of vote going against me?

A question about : What are the chances of vote going against me?

Hello all,

After much struggling, IVA is the only option. We've started the ball rolling with Grant Thornton. All ready I feel more like my self & I'm starting to sleep again!!

I still have a couple of concerns, my bridges are burning as I type. I've cancelled all my direct debits and changed my bank account and set up new direct debits to the necessary; utilities, mortgage & insurance etc.

Good morning all.... I have asked questions before with some great advice but please could someone answer the following before i apply for an IVA. I haven't fallen or defaulted on any payments so if i applied for the IVA would i continue to make payments until a decision is made or would it be that i would be advised to stop payments to ensure correct amounts of debts are shown.
Thanks in advance for any response.

IVA? Be very wary!

A question about : IVA? Be very wary!

If you are considering entering into the IVA process you'll need to be extremely careful if you have children who may wish to attend University during the course of the agreement. You will find that they are discriminated against by the Government and may not be offered the same opportunity as other students to the extent that they are excluded from any prospect of a University education.
