I split up with my wife last summer, I am paying the mortgage for my ex wife and my daughter. Now she is asking for maintenance and going down the CSA route. I think I am providing enough for my daughter as my wife does not pay rent and I was wondering if I stopped paying the mortgage would this affect my IVA ?
Assuming that your current payment is included in your agreed allowances, when you stop paying this it will be added to your IVA payment. On the other side of the coin Maintenance should be added to your allowances and reduce the payment, but this could have an adverse effect on the viability of the IVA.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
