So today I was paid rest of my holidays from 21-22 that I can’t take due to Covid and not being enough staff if people took their holidays. I know your allow to keep 10% but what happens with the rest would they happily let me keep it or share it 50/50 which seem pretty unfair cos it was something I wasn’t able to use due to Covid.
Firms seem to be taking different approaches on this. Personally, my thoughts are that you should be able to keep it, if it was not funded by a credit card which is now part of your IVA, and was paid for from your income -- it is not "Extra" income, but is money you put aside yourself.
If, say, you purchased a dress from the High Street, paid for it from your available expense allowances, and then, after a week or so, decided it isn't quite "you" and returned it for a refund -- that money would be yours.
But ... much will depend on when and how the holiday was paid for, in relation to your IVA.
EDIT --- apologies -- having re-read the post ---- this is holiday pay you are talking about, is it ? If so, this is money you would not have had ordinarily and could be counted as extra income. Therefore you would get to keep an amount equivalent to 10% of your usual take home pay and then split the rest 50 / 50 with the IVA. However, some IPs will look at this on an annual basis and allow you to keep an amount up to 10% of annual salary on a cumulative basis.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

Sounds like a stock, generic, reply. Wait for a decent response.
