If you can't afford your IVA payments your IP may be able to vary your agreement. However, this would have to be done with the express agreement of your creditors. I doubt whether you would be able to secure such agreement as you are unable to pay due to supporting a new partner who is not working. Why is your partner not entitled to any benefit themselves?

Hi patricia.c
I think you should talk to your IP as soon as possible and explain your new circumstaces. If you can't afford the payments you should ask for a variation meeting.
Is your partner looking for a job?
