Do you have to inform official receiver that you've resigned from your job? (DRO)

I know you have to inform about changes in circumstances which increase your income or assets, but is this something I have to inform them of seeing as I'll be worse off temporarily? My DRO was approved earlier in the month.
The reason is due to health, potential constructive dismissal, and breaking of covid rules (as advised by Citizens Advice.) I'm hoping I can get something else in place first but time is limited right now. Thanks.

    Are you making monthly payments? If so then yes, tell them you are earning less and these will be revised downwards (or stopped).

    The DRO has already been approved so I'm making no payments to my creditors.

    The answer is yes. You don't need to tell them that you resigned but that you are no longer employed, will be claiming benefits and if you get a new job you will let them know.

    You do have to declare your employer so it is best to let them know that this has changed, though the only time they would normally contact the employer is if you have an attachment to earnings.
