Hi Graham if you could post more details about your income and if you own property and if there is equity then better advice can be given. Who your creditors are would help also.

Hi Graham

How much are you paying to CCCS each month? You would need to make payments of at least £450 into an IVA to make it viable.

Welcome to the Forum Graham,

Could you provide your disposable income? who your creditors are? Are you able/willing to work for the next 5 year period?

On the amount of debt you have you will need c£430-450 per month as disposable income, is this possible for you?

I think the older you are the more willing creditors will accept the IVAs, it may be the last chance creditors they get most of their ££ back. We can't all be working till 70.

Go for it.

Another aspect to consider is your pension position as this has a big bearing on your decision as well!

You could potentially propose a successful IVA or Bankruptcy could also be an option.

It depends whether Graham is a property owner or has any other assets that he might want to protect.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is the present - a gift to make the most of.
