Hi Everyone,

So my IVA is done and dusted, just a quick question;

Where does my credit file clean up? is it 12 months after my last payment or 12 months after receiving my CC?

Cheers

It is 6 years from the start of your IVA assuming you have your completion certificate, which is the official end date of the IVA (not the final payment date).

Have a read here:

My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
