How much do you feel you could comfortably afford to pay in to the IVA moving forward, Jason, if your IP were prepared to consider presenting a variation of the terms for you to creditors?
What made you decide on an IVA over say bankruptcy in the 1st place Jason?
It would be a shame to go BR now after 3 years of an IVA. As Mel says with a variation to make the payments more affordable it is probably a better option.
What insolvency firm are you with?

Discharged today the 8th feb 2012. View is much brighter now.
Continuing to rebuild our credit worthiness.
It is in no ones best interests for it to fail now.
Give your IP a ring and explain that you are struggling and would like the payments reduced if possible.
I'm sure they will be able to help you.
