Hi there. I'm a single dad ( baby lives with his mum ) who has just set up an IVA for my own, personal debt management. I pay maintenance costs to support my son, and this has been factored into my IVA arrangement / agreement. As somebody with severe debt, but who would never shirk my financial responsibility to my child, I am keen to know if I can claim any government aid / financial support given my position of relative hardship. *I pay £125 per month at the present time to support my baby, which is pretty standard in IVA agreements.
Hi and welcome to the forum. I'm unsure of any government aid/financial support available to you but hoping someone else might be able to confirm this for you.
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.
There isn't any - but as the maintenance has been factored into your IVA as allowable expenditure, and presumably you are paying this at CSA levels, then I would say that you have a fair solution. Are there any other benefits your former partner could claim for to assist her?
