How often is a windfall allowed, before i start an iva. hypothetical- the man said somebody could send me £500 a day as long as its under £500 but that doesn’t seem right? Thanks
Doesn't seem right to me as well. Who told you that? Besides which you are only allowed to keep £499 -£500 and above goes to the IVA.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

It depends on the whole picture. In theory, say you won £400 on the horses ... you keep it. And tomorrow, you win £450 on a scratch card .... you keep it. The day after Aunt Mabel passes and leaves you £200 ... you keep it. BUT if you won £2000 on the gee-gees and the bookie said he would give it to you in £499 portions, that would be trying to cheat the system and you would need to pay the £2k over to the IVA.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
