Hi and welcome.
If your sole income is from benefits, then you won't be able to do an IVA. You could consider a debt management programme though.

Your DLA and incapacity benefit is paid to you to look after yourself - not to deal with debt repayments. I would also consider bankruptcy proceedings - which may well be the better option if you have no assets of material value.
