Hi Whitey - stop making payments after 3 you will be in breach and then it is dooomed to fail . However the creditors will start to chase you for all the debt you owe + interest.

Is there a reason why you wish to fail your IVA - is there problems the forum maybe able to advise on ??

Three months before you fail your IVA, then you have to apply to coutr ( and pay the fees), after that it's a few weeks to court hearing ( varies according to specific courts caseload), then it's a while ( how long is a bit of string) before OR gets around to dealing with your paperwork.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014

The 6 years will start on the bankruptcy date . payments order are more strict on allowances - so you could end up paying more. The PO will be made by the court via the OR

The Official Receiver is the person who will deal with your Bankruptcy once it has been granted by the court.
A bit like your IP. You will have to report to them all your changes in circumstances, he/she will deal with your assets, things like that.

Hi whitey

I noticed from your other post you were having some difficulties in regards to your income going up & borrowing from a family member? Have you managed to get in touch with your IP to explain?
They may be able to help & give you a solution to sorting this out for you.

Do you have any asest to protect? Going BR will have a more severe effect on your credit record. And recently BR have become more stricter, so you could end up paying more than what you would do in a IVA.
Final IVA payment made in April 2013, never ever thought we could do it or get through it but we did! X

A few people who post on here have, due to their circustances changing.
Main thing is you fully understand all your options and Pros /cons of all the routes.
None of the debt management plans - are easy options !
