Individual voluntary arrangements. VAT

What is an IVA?

There is no alternative to bankruptcy as an "individual voluntary arrangement (IVA). This is a formal agreement for the district judge to pay an agreed amount of your debts for a shorter period. This usually means paying a high monthly rate of over 3 to 5 years. The rest is canceled debt. IVAS Some are established on the basis of a lump on the offers no monthly payments to creditors. IVAS Some are a mixture ofboth.

If a right of VAT for me?

An IVA is not suitable for everyone. Usually it is only worth watching if you save lots of money every month to pay creditors and / or a lump sum or an asset that can be taken to have.

What is the procedure for VAT?

An IVA must be set up by an insolvency practitioner (IP). The bankruptcy trustee is usually an accountant or lawyer, court approval to set the comparison. Once an IP has agreed to make a proposal VATYou can use them for the county court of an order "interim".

This will prevent them from creditors in bankruptcy against you. Keeps all other enforcement action without the authorization of the court during the interim order remains in force.

From 01.01.03 you can put real tax proposal without the establishment of an interim measure before. This can reduce costs, but it means that your creditors can still bring proceedings against you until the IVA is agreed.

YouRequest a VAT having failed. Find the section "Fast Track Ivas." There are no rules on debt than you have before you are asking for a VAT.

The IP sends the IVA proposal to creditors and arranges a formal meeting as a "meeting of creditors" so that notice to creditors of at least 14 days'. Check with your IP and make sure that all creditors have been contacted. If the creditors do not have a meeting notice not to comply with the conditionsVAT and can continue for their separate debts.

During the meeting the creditors vote on accepting the VAT. Creditors often not his voice and the IP and actually at the meeting. If 75% of the creditors "by value" who actually decide to vote for the VAT, then bound to the rest of VAT, but did not vote against him or do the voice. "With the value of the creditor to which you have, not the value of 75% of the debt that the number of creditors you have.

So, if creditorsYou owe me through which the highest amount in respect of the proposal then the IVA. Sometimes creditors will haggle over the terms of VAT and ask you to agree to pay more each month or have assets that do not want to lose. You may request payments for a longer period to do.

Once the IVA is agreed, your IP will be monitoring the process and ensure that payments. If a creditor has agreed to come to light after the IVA, you can say that is the sumhave received as if they were included in the VAT, at the outset.

If no VAT is then returned to the same position as you said before the interim order and must be negotiated separately with the creditors. You must wait 12 months before they can apply for another protective measures.
