It is likely that this will mean that you are returning more money to your creditors.

You will always have to pay your creditors to the best of your ability in an IVA and this can mean that pay increases etc... can up the percentage in the pound that the creditors will receive.

The only way in which this may result in you finishing your IVA early would be if you reached a 100% return to your creditors plus IP fees within the agreed time scale.

Hi andyb and Welcome to the Forum,

Unfortunately increased monthly payments does not mean that your IVA will be paid off quicker, this is because in an IVA the individual must pay as much as they can. For some people this will be 25p/£ but for others this could mean 100p/£ plus I.P fees plus statutory interest.

Best Regards. IVA Experts

Good evening,

Unfortunately it does not mean that you will be able to finish your iva sooner. You will be returning more money to your creditors.

All the best.
