Thanks everyone. I'd love a smooth run for a change for the last 26 months!

Good news!! (with one final hiccup).

My wife has been offered a much less stressful job starting at the end of the month. The transition is not perfect and she owes some holidays which combined, equal a final pay packet down by about £450. This in unavoidable though and is necessary considering all that's been going on.

However, the new job is full time with regular hours and will be much better for her health...which is also better for her paypacket...which in turn is better for the IVA. If my IP can sort something out for me this last time it'll be great.

Wish me luck!

That's great news, I hope the job works out for her.

I'm sure your IP will be able to help you out.

Difficult times for IVA...those who have just finished[count yourself very lucky you were in boom period when employment was as high it could in 2006/7 and those with an IVA can get a mortgage]

If you are half way through the IVA now it's worth sustaining through the difficulties.Those starting out you going need to have nerves of steel.

It's not that bad. Life just happens irrespective of the iva. And anyone contemplating an iva would not be mortgage-worthy anyway and would still be eyeball deep in debt with no job security. Can't see how an iva makes life worse.

nomoremoney rarely has anything positive to say. My only worry is that people who could be helped by an IVA may be put off applying for one if they read these sort of posts.

Tho the forum must be good for the angry and melancholy posters otherwise they wouldn't keep coming here. I'm not normally zen but acceptance is the only way to get thru this...I would find it difficult to keep paying out if I resented every penny and couldn't understand why I had to go without.

Not all of the angry or depressing posters who come on here are genuine.

We get our fair share of troublemakers, usually people who are jealous of our success.
