My husband and I have recent;y split. I can afford to pay the mortgage, bills etc from my own salary but this would leave a far reduced payment into the IVA than I was previously making. Will this cause any issues? I can't sell the house as it's in negative equity and I have no other assets. I have informed my case officer of the situation.

Hi Jazz,

Will your husband have interest in the property?

You can ask your IP to call a variation meeting to see if your creditors accept a reduced payment, but they may decide your mortgage payments are too high compared with renting for example.

What has your IP advised?

Sorry to hear you have split up.

Hopefully your IP will be able to assist you.

It may be possible for you to put forward a variation to the terms of your original IVA, to pay lower payments as a result of your change of circumstances. Take advice from your own IP who is best placed to guide on matters like this.
