Hi i have an iva. I was in a car accident in october and may claim compensation. Would all of this have to be paid into the iva. If this does will this shorten my iva years.

Hi and welcome
It will depend on your Insolvency Practitioner, if they feel that any award is for pain and suffering then you may be able to keep it. if it is paid into your IVA it will not reduce the term unless you have paid all of your original debt plus any IP fees
Regards

I hope you get to keep it all. Its for pain and suffering at the end of the day and it seems unfair to have to hand these sort of funds over.
IVA complete March 2014 after 6 years.

I am with Freeman Jones and my proposal says it is mine for future physio etc, accident happened before IVA and still not settled but I live in hope!
I know I am a good person, I just need to start believing it

Hi Sarahdsk59
I'm sorry to hear about your accident.
Andy has already mentioned if you receive compensation for pain and suffering this usually won't need to to be introduced into your IVA.
We would however need to confirm this after checking your proposal, please do let me know if we can help by getting in touch. My email address is
Sarah.Jolly@freemanjones.co.uk.
Thank you
Sarah
