Hi, the monies are likely to go into one or other IVA, in the same way as, if there were no IVA, it would have been used to pay any outstanding debt, before the residue is distributed according to your wishes.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014

looks like we don't need life insurance as we do not receive any benefits

The monies will go to whoever the policies are assigned to - I assume that each policy is in the other partner's name as beneficiary?

It may be worth getting specialist advice to protect the inheritances should the worst happen. Potentially either death could trigger a windfall in the other persons IVA while possibly defaulting the deceased person's IVA.
