On the 6th April 2024, the government announced in their budget that they have removed the fee to apply for a DRO which had been £90 previously. This means you do not need to make any payments toward your creditors where you qualify and enter into this solution.
Your debts are placed on hold for 12 months before being written off. Only the debts included in the order can be written off so it is important you know who you owe money to.
In order to qualify for a DRO you must not be a homeowner, not have assets worth more than £2000 and not own a vehicle worth more than £4000. You must not have more than £50,000 of outstanding debts and must have less than £75 disposable income each month.
