My wife and I are currently in a debt management scheme and are considering changing to an IVA after our house is sold. We plan to emigrate to Australia next year and are quite interested in buying a house out there using something like the Homestart scheme. Does anyone know if it is possible to have an active UK IVA and be considered for a mortgage in Australia?
I'm afraid I don't really know the answer to that. I would have thought that you could possibly get one, but I have no idea what their credit checking is like over there.
Hopefully one of the experts will be along to advise later.
