If your IVA fails Vincent then there is nothing to stop you trying to come to a deal with creditors directly. If this is your intention, don't bother with asking for a six month break, as this serves no purpose.

Hi,

In all honesty it is not likely that your IP would make you Bankrupt unless the IVA had a clause in it which does not happen often and the Creditors would not as there is a cost to them.

I would contact your IP and take it from there especially if you are struggling with the payments. Maybe your Income and Expenditure needs to be reviewed.

I agree with Ray - unless your proposal and/or chairmans report states that they will keep money aside, it is unlikely that you will be made bankrupt as it costs the creditors a lot more than it does you.

If you have problems, your IP should be your first port of call.
