Yet another IVA question please

Ok, me again lol, ive told Payplan i wish to do an IVA with them, someone from their team is going to call me sometime this week to start things rolling - a weight off my mind that something is starting to happen,

i currently own a second car, ive had it for 8 years now and its only used in the summer,

the question is, will it be like the OR in bankrupcy where they look at my past finacial dealings and can take things back ? we all would love this car to stay in our family and was wondering if i signed it over to say my partner or my father before starting the proceedings weather it would be safe ?

if it has to go then it has to go i suppose lol

Happy sunday everyone :D.................Matt

    Hi and welcome.

    Bit quiet on here today - everyone out enjoying the sunshine probably!

    Have you tried posting this on the BR/IVA board? You may get a better response over there.

    Sorry I can't help.

    Can I ask, do you own / rent your property?

    Have you discussed other options with Payplan? Usually IVA's are only suitable for people who have property to protect. A dmp may be more suitable.

    That's one reason why an IVA is NOT good for you, regardless of what Payplan may say.
