Hiya. I have been in an IVA for 2years and am now in a position to offer a sum for an early settlement. My mum is to inherit some money in a few months(not sure exactly but guessing no more than 3). She has offered me a loan in which I can pay her back in smaller amounts over a longer period of time, wbich will give me more freedom and more of a life! I am going to offer the same amount in which i would be paying back after 5 years.

My question is can i put this proposal to my supervisor now, although the funds are not yet available? I see from this forum that it can take quite a few months for the offer to be agreed and paid so if I offered now the money will be in the bank by the time it needs to be paid. Or do I need to show proof of funds, i.e a bank statement with the money in my or my mums bank a/c before the proposal is put to my creditors? Any advice greatly appreciated, I don't want to waste my time or my supervisors. Many thanks

It's worth speaking to your ip so he/she can start drafting up a proposal and then you're set for when the inheritance comes thru.

You may also need confirmation from your Mum the funds will be available and only for the purpose of the full and final offer. All the best Lisa x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

Hiya Lisa

you will need a letter from your mum stating that funds are available, or will be soon. I dont think you will need to supply bank statments or anything, espeically your mums - I never anyway. ggod luck RB
