If you thought you were the only one in serious debt, think again. As debt steadily increases throughout the UK, thousands of people are choosing solutions like an IVA to help them get back in control.

But what is an IVA, exactly?

An Individual Voluntary Arrangement, commonly referred to as an IVA, is a debt solution that helps many people avoid going through the severity of bankruptcy. It's a legally binding agreement with your creditors in which you have the opportunity to freeze your interest rates and make lower repayments.

What happens in an IVA?

An Insolvency Practitioner will help you prepare an IVA proposal, tailored to your financial situation. In order for it to be approved, 75% of your creditors must agree to it. After that, you will no longer have to deal with your creditors; instead you make fixed monthly payments, usually over a five year period. By keeping to the terms, any outstanding debt at the end of the agreement can be written off. After an IVA you will be debt free.
