In a nutshell the answer is "YES" - anything is possible within an IVA contract, but as you are so close to the end your IP might prefer the arrangement to run to its natural conclusion. It may also take them several months to be able to issue their variation report to creditors, and this the benefit of early settlement for all parties wanes each month.
Is there a specific reason which leaves you wanting to accelerate the closure?

Hi LY and welcome to the forum

Thanks for that. A relative is offering to pay up for me, so I can start getting a 'good' credit score again. Would they accept?
They could well accept an offer of the remaining payment due under the IVA. However, paying early will have no good effect on your credit score, which will remain in the pits until the 6th anniversary of the start of the IVA.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
You can do a lot of things in an IVA, and of course you could offer a F&F, however, your IP may wish to see the IVA to its full term. Best to identify what you can offer and discuss with the IP.
