Read guide →An IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) is a legal process that lets you avoid bankruptcy by agreeing with your creditors to repay your debts over a set period — usually 5 or 6 years. It's set up and managed by a licensed Insolvency Practitioner. Interest and charges are frozen, creditors are barred from contacting you directly, and any leftover qualifying debt is written off at the end. Learn more about whether an IVA is worth it.
Generally you may qualify if you have over £7,000 of unsecured debt, owe money to two or more creditors, and can afford at least £100 each month towards your debts. Other factors — such as your property status and income — are also assessed. See our full guide: do I qualify for an IVA?
There are no upfront fees. Fees only apply if your IVA is approved, and they are incorporated into your monthly payment. All fees are explained to you in full before you enter into any agreement. Read more about how much an IVA costs.
An IVA is more than likely to affect your credit rating. That said, if you're already struggling with repayments, your credit rating is likely to be affected already. See rebuilding your credit score after an IVA.
We'll discuss all the possible options so you can make an informed decision. If an IVA isn't suitable, we may refer you to one of our trusted partners who specialise in alternative solutions such as Debt Management, a DRO or Bankruptcy.
