I haven't read the other thread, but you will need to be employed to put forward an IVA - but it is possible to do this with part-time earnings topped up with tax creditts - and presumably your partner will have to pay child maintenance as well.

If your son is leaving home, will he be getting a job which enables him to contribute to the household income as well?

Oh that is fine. So you will be losing child benefit and tax credit for him when he leaves school?

If you explain all this to an IP, they will be able to advise you.

Why don't you give someone like Melanie a ring and explain your circumstances to them? They can then put you on the right track.

Most IPs will take into account changes of circumstances that you are aware of at the outset. It would be silly not to, and would simply be setting up the IVA for failure.
