Hi SF,
Only just read this, I am so pleased you have managed to get another job, fingers crossed everything else that happens for the rest of your IVA is small and managable,

Many thanks all for your kind words; much appreciated.

We now have to submit new I&E into Melanie and take it from there.

Yes Bluesky its reassuring knowing weve got one of the industries best IP's on side. Country Girl, I hope you remain secure going forward. Its daunting enough having to face your debt demons; then finding out your position is to be made redundant just compounds the issue.

Well today we have submitted a new I&E into Melanie and the team. It is more than the 15% (more like 27%), whereby an IP can use their own discretion to alter down the IVA payments, so no doubt a meeting of creditors will have to be called.

Does anybody know how long it takes for a meeting of creditors to take place in situations of this nature?

Many thanks.

30 days notice are given to creditors before a variation meeting can be called.

I think you mean how long does it take for the IP to prepare the report. We tend to try and coincide these with annual reports to save on costs, but it is likely that this will occur once you are in default of the IVA - ie you have missed the equivalent of three full monthly payments.

Hi Melanie.

I was actually referring to the time-frame from us submitting a new I&E form, and the creditors meeting being called due to the fact our payments will drop by more than the 15%.

Could creditors now reject our IVA, because of the drop in monthly payments?

Exactly - you are talking about the timeframe to enable a meeting of creditors to be called. I think might be best discussed with Laura off line.
