I'm on an IVA that'll be completed in 4 years time. I've been offered shares at work (the company hasn't floated yet) and these will remain unvested until I've completed another 3 years' unbroken work with the company. They are currently worth nothing and there's no confirmed date when the company will be floated on the stock market. Would accepting them have any effect on my IVA?

Hi Neil and welcome to the forum.

No idea about this but you do need to speak to your IP to see if this acceptable.

hi ,yes they will need to be declared as i think they are classed as an asset ,and any payments from them during your iva would be classed as a windfall ,hope this helps [;)]

Hi
Dontlookback is correct, if they become an asset within the term of your IVA they will need to be realised and paid into your IVA.

The shares will become a windfall when they have vested - ie in three years time, so the right thing to do is to tell your IP now so that they can diarise a review at the appropriate time.
