Which creditors can be included in
an IVA?
Creditors you can include are: Banks, Finance Companies, Credit,
store and charge card companies, Customs and Excise (VAT), Inland
Revenue and even loans from friends and family. You can't include
your mortgage, hire purchase, leases, fines, debts incurred through
fraud, maintenance/child support arrears or rental property.
-
What happens once I finish
paying my IVA?
At the end of the process the Insolvency Practitioner will issue you
with a 'Statement of Completion', typically within 3 months of the
final payment. The Insolvency Practitioner will also send a copy of
this to the Insolvency Service so that they can amend their records.
So there is no need for you to attend court or even visit the
Insolvency Practitioners offices.
However, the onus is on you to send a copy of the Statement of
Completion to all the credit reference agencies which are in
operation at the time of their completion.
