| Individual Voluntary Arrangements |
An Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) may be the right solution for you.
What is an IVA?
An IVA is a legally binding agreement between you and your creditors. With an IVA, you could be debt free in 5 years. IVA’s should only be considered by those who are in severe debt.
An IVA could be a solution for your debt problems, if you:
- Are in regular employment
- Have accumulated debts over £15,000
- Have debts from 3 or more creditors
- Do not want to go bankrupt
How does it work?
You agree with all your creditors that you will pay them a set amount of money, usually not all the money you owe them, over a certain period of time. This can be by a monthly sum, by releasing the equity in your house or even a mixture of both. Once the agreement is made, the amount you pay cannot be changed. At the end of the agreed time period, provided you make all your payments, you are released from your debts.
During the term of the IVA, you are obliged not to take any more credit, and you must comply with the terms or the agreement will fail.
What are the benefits of an IVA?
It’s a flexible solution that can be tailored to your situation
You normally only need to make a single payment each month
Creditors cannot add on interest to their debt once the IVA starts
The IVA runs for a fixed term – generally no longer than 5 years
At the end of the agreed period, your debts are gone
While you may have to release equity in a property, you don’t normally need to sell it.
