If you are eligible to propose an IVA you must be Insolvent which means that you can not afford your monthly payments so even if your proposal is rejected you are not going to be in a much worse position anyway as you will still need to come up with a solution to resolve your debt difficulty. This would likely come through either bankruptcy or an informal debt repayment plan.

Hello crg and Welcome to the Forum,

Thomas Charles is correct, even if your IVA is rejected your total debt amount wont rise to an enormous amount.

Could you post some more information such as who your creditors are? and what your disposable income is?

Those creditors are generally supportive of IVA proposals, so keep everything crossed! In the event that you do not succeed at the creditors meeting, your other options are debt management or bankruptcy.

Good evening,

An experienced IP should be confident of getting more than 90% of IVA’s approved so this should not happen too often. In theory, you’ve made your best offer and the creditors have rejected it, so logically the creditors should then press for you to be made bankrupt as the only alternative left. In practice, they don’t, mainly because it costs a lot to make someone bankrupt. If your IVA is rejected, your other options are debt management or bankruptcy.

Kind regards,
