During the IVA you make one affordable monthly payment typically for 60 months.At the end of the term any devt you still owe is wrritten off.

An IVA is a legally binding agreement so once entered, your creditiors can't back out or change the terms after they agree to them.

Your creditors cannot back out once terms are agreed.
