    Once the arrears becomes a certain level it will trigger a notice of seeking possession to be sent. It does not mean at this point that you will evicted but it is a notice telling you that they can apply to the courts within the next 12 months (after that they have to issue a new notice) to begin the eviction process.

    If the payment plan you have in place is going smoothly and with no missed payments it is unlikely they will do so they are just protecting their income from the property.
