The fees involved in an individual voluntary arrangement are as follows:
Nominees Fee
The nominee fee is charged for the advice provided prior to entering into the IVA, preparing your IVA proposal, and corresponding with your creditors.
Once your meeting has been held and if your IVA is approved, you will then be charged a Supervisory Fee.

The supervisory fee is incurred for on-going administration of your arrangement, dealing with creditor correspondence, completing annual reviews, and providing ongoing support to you throughout the term of the IVA. Some firms operate a fixed fee model which means the fees are capped at £3650, these can change from firm to firm and will be outlined to you by the insolvency practice administering your IVA.
