The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

Ha!! I read it as possessions! Reading too quickly.
So sorry Kaye.
IVAs are not usually an issue it's Bankruptcy that's more onerous and prevents people from being Chartered accountants, certain bank jobs, solicitors, IPs and Judges etc. and some services like Police, Fire, Army etc.
What do you do? Have a look at your contract to see if it mentions an IVA terminating your contract but I would think this is quite rare for a 'normal' job.
Also certain public sector jobs don't allow you to be in an iva.
Police are getting a little better but only to existing employees.
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.
