Full and Final payment
Hello.
I have IVA for 72 months and I have paid for 24 months so far. I still have 48 months left to pay. Currently I am paying £110, so with this rate I have to pay £5280.
My cousin is willing to pay £4000 to pay my IVA off.
My question is whether this amount is enough to be accepted and is it too soon to request F&F payment. Another question is my cousin lives in another country. Will this make it difficult for my creditors to check legality of this payment.
Thank you.

Considering they are saving 4 years as well I think £4k is worth a shot.

As for the donor being abroad ...as long as they can offer proof of identity and proof of the funds there should be no issues. But this will depend on your IP.

Usually a letter and a bank statement. You must also state the money is only available for the full and final.

Thank you for the reply

I have another question, sorry about too many questions.
I had a look at the template. This states that I should say that I am unable to keep up the payment and should provide evidence. Is this really necessary?
Can I just make an offer without any other reasons.
Thank you.

The template is only an example. You can make an offer with no reasons at all, but you are trying to convince creditors to accept less than they might be getting otherwise ... the less you offer, the more compelling your arguement needs to be. You have to look at it from the creditors point of view and ask yourself if you would agree to the offer if you were a creditor.

Hi. Another question please. Is there any chance for my cousin to send his bank statement straight to my creditors without going through me as my cousin does not want to reveal his bank statement to me because this is confidential.

Thank you.

He needs to send it straight to your IP -- not creditors.

The IP will put the offer together and contact all creditors, who will then vote to accept or reject.

Best of Luck.

Hi

I received reply from my IP after submitting my F&F offer. They said that I have £5390 left to pay and asked me to pay full amount plus a meeting fee of £300. They also said less than this amount will most likely to be rejected.
I thought I would ask you. Is it anything to do with my job, I am a doctor.

Thank you.

Are you with CreditFix ? This is a stance that they often (incorrectly) take ... I hope others are not jumping on that bandwagon !
It is not up to your IP to decide if an offer is good enough and it is not up to them to decide whether or not to put the offer forward.
Many, many times lower offers are accepted, but, unfortunately, your IP is in a position to influence the outcome by the way he approaches creditors !

Thanks for the prompt reply

Yes I am with Creditfix. Do you think they would consider if I offer £5000 ? I have to ask my cousin and I find it so hard for him to pay the whole amount.

Thanks
