Hi Pete It is unclear to me from your feedback if youre in the process of an IVA or if this event is history. If youre currently trying to propose an IVA then I would certainly consider changing your IP before you commit, 5 years is a long time to be with someone who you clearly do not trust. If th...

Welcome to the forum peterdelg,

An IVA would take from 6 to 8 weeks. Nine months seems extremely excessive.

Hi Michelle,
Thank you for your input.
I am beginning to build a picture that 6-8 weeks is the norm for this process under normal circumstances

I think yes 9 months does seem a little excessive but it does obviously depend on your own personal circumstances and what information your IP required and whether there was a delay with paperwork etc. We made initial contact with someone at the end of August and it was passed to our IP around the ...

Mine took 8 months from start to IVA being approved, but I have a good IVA and looking back on posts on this forum I know I got a good deal. Whilst I agree timescales like this are too long ,if it means all the facts are looked into properly and thoroughly I wouldnt neccessarily write your IP compa...

I dont think that taking nine months is down to facts being looked into, a good IP will be able to investigate in around 6-8 weeks if everything is straightforward. Who on earth wants to be in limbo for nine months?. An IVA is based on an individuals circumstances and 'deals' dont come into it. lil...

You could accrue 9 months of back dated debt before the creditors meeting with charges added - overlimit and arrears. You need to take this into account as when the meeting takes place the actual debt and the presented debt could be miles apart causing excessive modification on the dividend returns...

I agree Lily - nothing should take anything like as long as this poster has suggested - so long as he/she has provided the IP with all documentation beforehand.

9 months???? Our IVA took 6 weeks from initial contact to acceptance....why so long? Why spend life worrying...when you can spend it smiling!! I gave the IVA provider my full and prompt cooperation with providing details - my case was not exceptional in terms of size of debt and number of creditors...

What would be an optimum time frame for and IVA provider to arrange a creditors meeting after being in possession of all a customers details. Assuming there are no exceptional circumstances, what do you think the maximum time would be and is nine months excessive?
Thank you
