I currently have an IVA with Debt Free Direct it has been running for 6 months, At the time I was working as a financial adviser with Legal & General who were happy for me to have the IVA as they did a financial health check, I also checked with the FSA who have no problems with IVA’s as I did not want the IVA to effect my career prospects. Unfortunately I was made redundant in December 2009. With new employers the IVA is a problem even through the FSA are happy for me to be a financial adviser under their fit and proper rules. Please can you advise?
Hi At the end of the day I suspect it is down to your employers to make the decision to employ you or not, however it does seem a little unfair to say the least.If you are working under a network and are not the principle then you should be ok. Let us know how you get on Regards
