This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition IVA completion certificates should be issued promptly when an IVA finishes.
IVA or Individual Voluntary Arrangement is a 5 year alternative to bankruptcy.
IVA completion certificates should be issued within 30 days of an IVA completing. Many certificates are taking months to issue despite repeated chasing. These delays are stressful and put peoples lives on hold.

This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The UK Government and Parliament aren’t responsible for issuing IVA completion certificates.
The Government would be able to issue legal guidance to the Insolvency Service, saying that IVA certificates should be issued promptly.
You could start a new petition asking the Government to issue this guidance, if that’s what you would like to happen
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
