Thanks everybody for your kind responses and I'm sure I'm being thick but I still cannot get my head around when it is a windfall and when it is a bonus/OT. From the above it would appear that bonus/OT has to be paid at 50% after 10%, but a new job with higher wages would constitute a windfall. So (...

I have been in an IVA for seven months now. Although I am married my debts were entirely my own and my wife is not party to the IVA despite the fact that her income was obviously taken into account when assessing me to see whether or not I qualified. Recently my wife set up an internet business whic...
