Hi Melanie,

im currently discussing a DMP with Andrew, at Brightoak, but i think with my level of debt it should be a tempoary solution. Would you help propose an IVA For me in the future, at the same as a DMP (£300 a month)?



Thanks

Stu

am I right in leaving the second IVA for about 6 - - 12 months, do a DMP and then consider a second IVA.

Thanks

Stu

Not sure what you mean by a second IVA? And I would need to look at you whole income and expenditure situation to see whether the money you pay your Mum is likely to be acceptable to creditors.

Hi Melanie,

We have spoken before a while back, I had an IVA with debt matters and it failed.

My income is £1251.99 and outgoings are £950 excluding IVA.

Hope this helps

Stu

OK - well there is no reason why you cannot propose a second IVA, so long as the first one has definately concluded. I will speak to Andrew tomorrow about your case.

Thanks Melanie,

I spoke to Andrew the other day (and am in regular EMail contact with him) I suggested a meeting in Cardiff next January, apparently you were unsure of whether an IVA would be suitable, especially as some of the housekeep to my mum includes £372 a month towards a loan in her name that she took out for me.

Stu J Byron

If you're coming to Cardiff, then Andrew's office is just down the road from mine so I will come along and we can discuss a way forward for you then. I remember the case now, and you will not be able to include your Mum's loan repayments as part of your housekeeping in an IVA.

Hi Melanie
I need to repay that £372 to my mum each month, the loan ishers its in her name, she charges me a reduced rent to accomodate it to in effect im paying her £488 rent each month for her to deal with.

Stu J Byron

Then an IVA is not likely to be an option for you, as you cannot prefer your Mum's loan over your other creditors.

As a general comment a similar scenario would apply to a DMP.

Any ethical debt management company would feel the need to disclose the nature of that family arrangement to creditors so that they may draw their own judgment in an informed way as to whether it represents a fair offer of repayment to them.

I dont know what to do then, isnt £488 a reasonable payment for housekeep to my mother. Is it not upto my mother what she decides to do with that £488 a month?



Stu J Byron

Hello Stu,

I'll email you directly on this tomorrow and fully address your email of earlier today at the same time. The money that you give to your mother is clearly made up of housekeeping and a loan repayment. Housekeeping is fine; the element of the payment meant for the loan has implications for the availability of debt solutions if you insist on preferring this debt.

And creditors would not accept such a high payment for board and lodge for someone living at home with parents.
