    No, far too little debt for an IVA, they are meant for homeowners with massive debts who cannot go bankrupt.

    Would you qualify for a debt relief order instead ?

    Failing that its debt management ?

    We really need to know more details about your situation, such as are you a homeowner, do you have other assets/cars etc, are you working, on benefits, any other debts   ?
