IVA Process

The IVA process is complex, as it is a legally binding agreement with your creditors that can only be put forward by an Insolvency Practitioner. An IVA is a legally binding contract with your creditors where you agree to make set monthly payments based on your income and a proportion of your debt will be written off.

It will all begin with a simple free phone call to 0800 048 1752 (or filling in a quick online form) to One Advice, and from there we will be able to help you begin your debt free future.

The time frame detailed below is the average number of days taken to process your IVA paperwork, but each case is unique and the below timeframe is only a guidance to how long it will take to arrange your IVA proposal.

Further Details of the IVA Process 

During the IVA process and in order to protect you from your creditors calls and letters, One Advice may apply for an Interim Order which means that creditors cannot continue with any legal proceedings against your debt.

Your IVA proposal will be submitted to your creditors who will hold a meeting to vote on accepting or rejecting your proposal. Normally, your Insolvency Practitioner will represent you, acting as Chairman, to propose your IVA. There is no guarantee of success, but Insolvency Practitioners would not propose an IVA that isn’t likely to be accepted.

Of those creditors who vote, if 75% (in terms of debt value) accept the proposal your IVA is approved. All your unsecured creditors are bound by the IVA, whether they voted against or didn’t vote at all.

For those that qualify, an IVA can be the best way to sort out serious debt problems.

If this sounds like the perfect option or you would just like some more information about the IVA Process, please fill in our Quick Enquiry form or call free phone 0800 048 1752.

Unsecured debts only. An IVA should only be considered in extreme circumstances as failure to adhere could result in bankruptcy. Debt write off applies only where the IVA is agreed by your creditors and you have completed the, typically, 60 month term.
Once your IVA commences, your monthly contribution is fixed and that is all you have to pay. There are no additional fees on top. Our fees, paid by your creditors, are taken out of your monthly contributions to your IVA and will be notified to you in advance. Some homeowners may be required to remortgage. Terms & Conditions Apply.
