Job change in IVA

Rachelm91

Hi everyone,
I’m currently in my second year of my IVA. I’ve recently been furloughed from my job in a pub due to Covid-19, I decided to take a job as a carer to help the community and give myself something to keep myself busy. I get paid weekly from the pub and my pay from the care home is 4 weekly, I’m due my first pay on the 1st of May from the care home however it will only be 3 weeks worth of pay and will be automatically be taxed 20% (can’t change my personal tax allowance before I get paid) because of this I’m going to continue to receive a couple of pays from the pub to make up for not getting a full pay. I’m going to ask to be taken off the system at the pub after 2 pays as not too earn more money. My problem being is I won’t know my wage until I get my second pay from the care home and my expenses will go up for petrol etc. I have tried emailing the person I was dealing with however it bounced back and now I do not know who to get in touch with and when I should notify them? If I tell them now I do not know what my take home pay will be, will I be okay to give it a couple of month and then get back in touch and tell them my change in circumstances, my annual renew isn’t until October/November.
Sorry for the long post and appreciate any advice/help

I didnt think you could get an additional job whilst on furlough?

As long as your employer allows you too and it isn’t in your contract not to take another job it’s fine apparently 🤷🏻‍♀️

you should notify your IVA company as early as possible really, just to make sure you aren't building up a deficit in monthly repayments (don't want it to come to light in November, and turns out you should have been paying more and have to find a few hundred). In terms of how to contact, I'd try phone or failing that a letter
