hi i have just heard back from ip and been told that unless i go back to work i cant carry on with iva as i dont have enough money to continue with payments,have i any other choices than br?

If you cannot afford to continue with your voluntary arrangement contributions, dute to the loss of your employment, the bankruptcy is probably the best option. Is your IP going to petition for your bankruptcy on grounds of your default, or are you going to petition directly?

i dont know what is the best thing to do? dont really know much about bk !we live in a rented house,still have 1 year left of paying for our car which is worth £3000 who is informed of our bk? do we have to pay any money out? how long does it stay on our credit?

The cost of a bankruptcy application is £485 per person, but if you are not working and claiming benefits you can get a small reduction on that fee. Details of your bankruptcy will remain on the credit agency files for six years from the date of the bankrutpcy order.

so what differnce does it make if i file it or my ip does?

It costs you £485 if you file - if your IP does it may take longer but the cost will be met from the monies you have paid into the estate.
