Yes it is possible but you will have to ask permission from your IP and ultimately your creditors. This can be done if (i) The funding of the set up costs and deposit is not coming from you directly (as any spare money you have should be declared and potentially put forward to your creditors) (ii) That your mortgage payments do not effect your ability to continue to pay your contractual monthly IVA payment.

Hi ben

Yes that is possible, but you will need to assess the impact of mortgage payments against the rental you are probably paying now. Your IVA will include ongoing payments based upon your current disposable income, and you will need to avoid this being reduced if your mortgage payments are going to be higher.
