Hi all i have made a full and final settlement towards the end of january and i have phoned my iva company and have been told this has now been drafted and waiting to be signed by a manager. Im slightly confused on the ladies advice. Once this has been sent to my creditors which i believe is 28 days she then told me we would be given a date after this for a creditors meeting.
I suppose my question is - what is the process after the 28 days. Does it take another 2 motnhs? or how long after the 28 days can i can i get an answer to see if my offer has been accepted. thanks for your help as usual - just worried as my new job role which will start in the middle of May means i cant be in an iva.
a very worried and sleepless wreck - thanks for any advice - Ian

Once the variation is signed by you a copy will be circulated to all creditors giving them 28 days notice of the meeting. The decision should be made that day and the file closed on receipt of the full and final funds.

Speak to your IP and explain your restricted timescale and ensure all creditors have claimed. This will allow a quick closure of the IVA.

There are no real set timescales for closing a case after a successful variation meeting - but clearly the sooner the better for all parties concerned.

Hello one and all - feeling pretty good today as i have received a phone call from GT that my full and final offer has been accepted and they will be sending me a form to sign. They also said that once the money is received then certificate of completion will be sent within 6-8 weeks. my main 2 creditors had agreed so the other votes were not needed. Feeling really good.
cant wait for the cloud to be finally lifted and to start working at saving more and buying cash. lol

Thank you to you all for your advice and will let you know the next stage when i have the certificate.

All the experts should be proud of themselves has they are the IP's that have helped us to understand the legal jargon and the law when it comes to IVA - for this i am truly grateful and i am sure the others are too....

Great news Ian but push GT to clear up the paperwork. They seem to have done a really good job to date but you do want your IVA completed before the new job starts.
