IVA Question

Jun 05, 2006 2 Replies

A and B are married.



A has credit card debt of manageable size. However B has gone in at the deep end and cannot keep up repayments. Can B enter into an IVA alone, not involving A or A's finances, even though they are married?



(Selling their house is not an option and there is not enough equity in the property for a remortgage.)

Yes, but any joint assets will be considered - ie valuable cars etc. Possible receiver will take a charge on the house expecting it to increase in value and take their chunk later.

IVA probably not best option, bankrupcy over and done sooner and cheaper
