Hi all, I have 2 yrs and 4 months left on my IVA and would love to start a family as I am now married (I was single when I took out my IVA). Will my payments reduce if I go onto maternity pay or do I have no option but to wait? I am devastated that this may stop us trying for a family for some time, all due to my own stupid mistakes in the past. Id appreciate your advice as unfortunately Im with DFD who do not communicate all that well.

hey jlo congratulations on getting so far in your iva !
i would try and have a word with your ip. if youre only getting to talk to the call centre you probably wont get much joy but to speak with the actual ip is different. you can get your ips details-someone will let you know-
the iva is there not to restrict your life but to make it liveable
when you finally get to speak to your ip they can work out the payment options with you and please dont beat yourself up about your debt. weve all been there. you have made a major achievement already getting so far in your iva. cut yourself some slack ok ?[:)]
