An IVA is an official debt repayment plan that in most cases includes the freezing of interest, reduction in the total amount of debt owing, and legal protection from creditors as long as the terms of the IVA are adhered to.

IVA points:
Payments are normally made over a 5 year period, following which the remainder of your debt (up to 60%) is written off. You must have a minimum debt of £15,000 to apply.
An Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) is an agreement with your creditors to make a single reduced payment each month. This lasts for an agreed period of time (usually 5 years).
Once agreed, creditors are not allowed to add interest or charges to your accounts by law. The agreement is fixed meaning that creditors cannot randomly demand changes to it.
