Apologies if this is in wrong section - but it is in a way related to insolvency.
After attempting to resolve my disastrous financial situation with over a year and almost that length of time dealing with a PIP - I have asked my PIP to lodge a personal insolvency proposal for me which I hope can be done on next few weeks (he is on leave right now)
I have several debts, mortgage, credit union and a personal loN from bank.
I was issued a court claim notice by credit union solicitor last week and as you can imagine I've had sleepless and tearful nights. As my pip is on leave I contacted the credit union solicitors by phone and they said if they hear from him it can be held off.
My fear is this won't happen in time.
So I contacted the court with my reference to ask what happens after the 28 days. They said there will be no court hearing, just that an order will be put on me without notice to recover the entire amount (15k). (By far not my biggest debt)
They said the sheriff will visit my home to recover any goods.
This scares me. I don't believe I own anything valuable - but do they literally go through your drawers and presses searching ? :-(
The only item of value I own is a 2004 car valued at 2k which I need to get to work.
I live in rented accommodation and most items belong to landlord. The mortgaged property is in mine and my ex partners name and is sitting empty.
Can anyone ease my mind for the weekend ?
Also, can anyone tell me was the new law introduced yet that the banks veto on insolvency is gone ?
