Hi Jill, there's no restrictions within an IVA on what jobs/offices you can have. The problem may arise if you are asked on application. Obviously if they do a credit check it's going to show up.

It could be a problem Jill. I don't know the 'ins and out' of it but as with some positions when you are classified as insolvent you are deemed to be open to bribery and corruption. I would have thought Magistrate would have been one of these such positions. Totally unfair of course but thats bureaucracy for you.

Here I am doing and saying the same things I did back then and now I'm labelled senile

There should be no reason why you cannot apply to be a magistrate - but there will be a financial declaration that you have to make where you will have to declare your IVA, and this culd go against you.
