    It's easy to be self employed , just ring the tax office and say "I want to register as self employed"

    It's easy to do online tax

    Just Keep good records for tax purposes

    IVA is not an issue unless you are working in certain financial areas

    You don't need a company.

    You don't need a business account but it's better to separate finances, being on an IVA may affect you opening a new account though
