I pay 2376 a year into my IVA, we will have to go into a sixth year as we will be unable to remortgage due to my husbands age, would it be possible to pay a lump sum (2376)if we could get hold of it so we wouldn't have to go into a sixth year

Probably - in reality you would be offering a full and final settlement.
IVA started March 2011, Completed March 2016 and certificate issued 11 days after final payment. It was not always easy but then some of the best decisions aren't.

It probably gives this option in the document anyway so double check with your IP.

No reason why you cannot offer this as a F&F settlement.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

Does it usually take 6 months for the completion Certificate to come through or does it depend on who you have your IVA with ?

Some take a few weeks to a couple of months, some look at 6 months as the minimum (rather than the maximum it is intended to be) and a couple go into the years !!

As soon as our IVA has finished we want to sell up and move abroad, do we have to wait for the completion certificate so we can do this ? up to 6 months and longer seems along time .

The completion certificate unlocks a lot of doors and makes life easier.

Until you get that certificate you are bound by the IVA. If you sell up the creditors might want the equity. Best to wait.

I am sure the IP can word the F&F to allow you to move abroad earlier and ensure they will not have access to any funds when you sell up.

Cant see why creditors would reject this and they are no worse off.
