Why do an IVA Application?
- An IVA Reduces & stops interest
- You only make one affordable payment.
- Unlike Bankruptcy, an IVA does not statutorily restrict a debtor from obtaining credit, although the proposal might do.
- An IVA Reduce payments by 75%
- The biggest advantage to an IVA over Bankruptcy is the control the debtor has over their home. In bankruptcy, the debtor's assets will vest in the Trustee (some assets are excluded, notably those used as tools of trade, ordinary household contents and a modest motor vehicle). This will usually include equity in their property and the Trustee may force its sale. An IVA proposal may exclude the property altogether, propose a re-mortgage or offer income based contributions for a longer period in lieu of the debtor's equitable interest in the property. The Supervisor may register a restriction on the property to ensure that his or her consent is required before the property is, for example, sold or re-mortgaged.
- If you do an IVA then all debt collection calls will stop
- A major advantage of an IVA over debt management arrangements is that all unsecured creditors are bound by it once it has been agreed: even if they did not agree to the IVA at the meeting of creditors. As only those creditors who vote at the meeting are counted, those creditors who did not vote at all are still bound by the decision, as are those who voted against it if they are outvoted (see above). Creditors bound by the IVA cannot take enforcement action to recover the debt, but instead submit a claim in the IVA and are paid by the Supervisor.
- An IVA is a fully legal government scheme guaranteed to get you debt free
Best Advice on your IVA Application
At Money Advice Direct we will advise you on proceeding with an IVA only if it is shown to be the best course of action for you to take. A specialist IVA adviser will first look carefully at your individual situation and decide if an IVA is the best course of action for you. If for example, they are only likely to get a small return such as 5p in every £ you owe them then they will probably decide to reject your IVA application, if this is the case then there are other options to deal with the debts such as Debt Management or Bankruptcy.
To contact an IVA advisor call 0800 074 6918. Alternatively complete an online IVA application enquiry form and an advisor will call you back at the time that you specify.
