Hi
Always keep up with your mortgage payments over your unsecured IVA debts.
Unsecured creditors are unlikely to make you bankrupt due to the costs,you may be ale to reduce your IVA payments or go onto a debt management plan.
Regards

Wobly, are you having trouble with making payments towards an IVA? If so, you need to speak to your IP.

Bankruptcy will always be a last resort for creditors.

Speak to your Supervisor and explain your predicament. His/her firm might be able to offer you going onto a DMP. But most important keep up your mortgage payments. Possibly (depending on your age) you might be able to convert from a repayment mortgage to an Interest only one - giving you a breathing space of more DI per month. Discuss with your IP.

Do you have any equity in your property based on a current valuation?

Try getting in touch with your IP directly,use www.iva.com to look them up,much better that talking to an organ grinder than a monkey as they say.

You did not state whether your mortgage was a repayment one or interest only one?
