hi there, i have recently been accepted for an iva but can anyone answer this question.
My payrise this year has now been accepted and will be backdated to January 1st 2010 its around £45 per month and i also have received £300 yearly bonus, so in August my arrears will be around £600 extra, do i need to inform my IP of this?
Hi Craig and welcome to the forum. Congratulations on your payrise and bonus, it's always best to keep your IP in the loop with anything like this and they will advise accordingly.
You say your arrears, wasn't sure what you meant by this? x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.
You need to speak to your IP now and inform the of the bonus and the backpay now so that you can pay across whatever is laid down in your IVA.
That way you will have no arrears.

You will possibly have to pay some of that bonus money to your IP, depending upon the terms of your own IVA, so give them a call as the sooner you know how much of it is yours the sooner you can have a small treat - with the rest of it into savings for a rainy day!!!
Definately better to discuss things like this with your IP rather than wait till a review and find you owe extra money over that you have spent. If in doubt ask,and if possible get something in writing,just in case further down the line you get a different answer.

I received a pay rise in may which was £114.00 poinds net a month and under the 10% clause. My IP told me I did not need to pay anything, but I am now in my review so I would imagine some of that will go !!
I have just been informed that I have received a bonus of £2220 net and I have deucted 10 % halved the balnce and ready to pay my IP the other half.
Its best to inform your IP at the earliest time and get it in written format
