An Individual Voluntary
Agreement is another name for an Individual Voluntary Arrangement or IVA.
An Individual Voluntary
Agreement is a way to resolve your debt situation without getting yourself
into further debt with a so-called debt consolidation loan. IVAs are
structured plans which wipe out the larger portion of your debt immediately
and then divides the reminder into manageable chunks to be paid off
every month.
An Individual Voluntary
Agreement is not a one-size-fits all type of thing. Rather, it is tailor
made to your specific circumstances. For this reason it is rare for
any two such IVAs to be ever alike. The plan is drawn up by an Insolvency
Practitioner who is a qualified expert and who will look at your financial
situation in detail in order to arrive at a solution which is the optimum
plan for you and your own circumstances.
When you take out
an Individual Voluntary Agreement your creditors will be legally bound
by it. That means that they should stop harassing you (though this cannot
be guaranteed). For this reason alone an IVA can be seen to be highly
attractive, especially if the matter has been passed to debt collectors
and debt purchasing companies.
To qualify for an
Individual Voluntary Agreement your income needs to exceed your expenditure.
By how much your income needs to exceed your expenditure really depends
on the IVA plan in question, which is why our whole-of-market approach
works wonders: we will match you up a plan for your own circumstances.
To apply for an
Independent Voluntary Arrangement, without any obligation, or to see
if you are eligible for one, apply using the form below.
So if you have at
least two accounts in debt, and total debts of £2,000 or more,

or are on state benefits, then use this

Please
be aware that figures entered need to be accurate by law, and to give
the best service to you. It is extremely important that you budget for
all necessary expenditure including rent or mortgage, council tax and
utility bills, etc., and any other necessary outgoings related to the
upkeep of your household and inrelation to any specific circumstances
that may relate to you. This website only collects data on behalf of
debt management professionals, from which it will receive affiliate
remuneration for data collection only and does not itself engage in
any debt management services. Other debt management options are available
and may be more suitable. People entering into an IVA or debt management
will have this entered on their credit profile and this may affect their
ability to get credit in the short term or even in the long term in
some cases. It is free to apply from this website; you will be given
advice by debt management professionals and a 'cooling off' period,
by law, to decide whether or not the debt management plan is suitable
for you, and you should be aware that a fee will be chargeable upon
a successful arrangement, as with any commercial transaction. Failure
to meet the repayments on an IVA or any debt management programme may
result in serious consequences, including, but not limited to, bankruptcy.
Bankruptcies, CCJs and similar defaults will be entered into a public
register and will remain there for a statutory period of not less than
six (6) years.
