Hi there - Skippy will be able to answer your question fully, but in the meantime read her blog. It has the percentages of payments in there as a guide.

We generally work on the basis of between 50% and 70% of disposable income, but best to check out the blog just to be sure.

Once you have more than £100 surplus income you would have to make payments into an Income Payment Agreement (IPA). This lasts for 36 months, and you pay a percentage of your surplus income, not all of it.

Probably two-thirds of your surplus disposable income for 3 years.

There is a table in my blog showing how the payments are worked out.
