My partner is hopefully getting a profit related bonus in May. My Iva is due to finish end of June. I have the equity release in my terms and conditions. He is offering me 4k for a full and final. Will he be allowed to do this? What do you think the chances are of it being accepted. Currently paying 322 per month. Thank you.

It will depend on whether you have any equity to release or the de minimis clause applies. Have you had a valuation?

Waiting for the valuer to come out for a forced sale valuation. Yes I have the clause. Thinking there is prob 10k in equity.

You probably stand a good chance - just depends on the company you are with and helpful they have been in the past.

Get the valuations sorted first and see if they impose an extension, then you can make an offer if you wish. £4k will be a generous offer.

Can a partner offer the money? What if they don't accept. They can't take his money can they. He is not part of the iva.

They may want proof that the money is available - just ensure that the money stays in their account until it has been agreed.

Yes, a solvent partner can offer the money as their money is their own ( I would caveat that by saying that some firms take total household income into consideration when arriving at a repayment and I am unsure as to how those firms would treat a partners bonus). The offer should be written in terms that if not accepted the IVA continues as before.

Thanks Foggy. He will only offer this to conclude the Iva. I was with PJG and still under their terms. I Just want it done now. The uncertainty is making me ill

Mel made it quite clear any bonuses that he got were his own. Unfortunately this is the only time he has had the opportunity to receive this.

PJG (and presumably CreditFix if that's who you're with now) only have a claim on money coming to you.

His bonuses are 100% his and they absolutely have no claim on it.

However, anyone at all can offer you money to make a F&F offer, there's no restriction on that.

Make sure he doesn't GIVE you the money first. That'd be classed as a windfall. He holds the money until the F&F offer is accepted.

Good luck and let us know how you get on :)
