It depends on which company you are with and how household income is worked out.
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 is normally 50% of the increased surplus income after allowing for any increases in the cost of living and the costs of the job. It usually does not need to be addressed until the annual review but double check with your own IP.

If the IVA is in your name only, nothing, although your disposable income might increase slightly due to her taking a bigger share of expenses.

If you are with Payplan, there will be a bigger impact as they tend to use household income from the start, and will be as Michael has explained.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014

If the IVA is in your name only they can only increase the IVA payments by half of your share of increased surplus income. Send them an email first for confirmation.
