We have been advised that come August we could look at introducing 3rd party funds, and offer up a F&F to creditors to close the IVA - due in part to my OH being made redundant.

The money is available, but the 3rd party knows nothing about our IVA.

Would our IP need to make the 3rd party aware for the IP to accept the funds?

What would the IP require from the 3rd party?

Many thanks.

Due to money laundering requirements they need to know where the funds are coming from plus confirmation that the funds are available.
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.

Would that mean I confirm to our IP the name / address of the 3rd party, and the 3rd party would have to make the deposit direct to our IP?

Hi - I'm a little confused - if the 3rd party doesn't know about the IVA what do they think their money is being used for?

They will be advised their money is being used for anything other than closing off an IVA.

It would be easier to go BR than the in-laws finding out about our IVA!!

Would they be told that the money is being used to settle debts?

If they can't be told the truth or something close to it I wouldn't use anything from them.

It is very likely that they would find out. They have to confirm the source of the money, probably provide bank statements and really need to confirm that this money is to be used solely for the purposes of closing the IVA and, if the offer is refused, will be retained and no longer be available to the creditors.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
