An IVA may not be suitable in all circumstances. Fees apply. Entering into an IVA will affect your credit rating. You could write off up to 80% of your debts upon successful completion of an IVA.(10% of our customers wrote off 80% in the last 12 months, with a typical figure of 25%-75%).

Be sure to do your research to make sure you aren’t missing out on any benefits you’re eligible for. For more information on benefit qualifications, contact Jobcentre Plus.

If you have recently started claiming Jobseeker’s Allowance because you have found yourself unemployed, it may be worth explaining your situation to your creditors. In some instances, they could be prepared to alter the repayment obligations, especially if you can show job prospects on the horizon.

It can be difficult to successfully enter into a debt repayment agreement if you are not earning a regular income. In Scotland, for example, those on benefits do not ordinarily qualify for Trust Deed agreements. However, if you claim benefits in England or Wales, you may qualify for an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) – where you agree on a repayment plan with creditors over several years. Alternatively, you may qualify for a Debt Relief Order (DRO) or an informal debt management plan administered by an organisation, such as a charity.
