I had my iva since 2012 and it was extended for 2 year due to massive income change, so 7 years in total now received a letter about equity release which I was aware of, but if I'm not able to release can they extend it a further year so it woukd then be 8 years

They can do --- however, I am curious to know why they extended due to a payrise. The rise in income should have resulted in an increase in the monthly payment, not an increase in the term.

Was it a pay rise or a drop in income?
