Hi

I have just seen this post and am of the view that whilst there is no legal reason as to why your dad cannot be a guarantor, there is the practicality of "what if"

By that I mean what if you defaulted on the rental payment and your dad was approached by the landlord. I am not saying for one minute that you will default, but looking at the consequences if you did...

This would put your dad in a difficult position and may lead to him being forced into bankruptcy due to a failed IVA

As Skippy has suggested, post a thread on the IVA site - you may get more responses thetre

Good luck, Richard

I'm not sure if your dad can be a guarantor if he has an IVA. I would be worth posting on the sister site, www.iva.co.uk, and one of the professional experts will be able to help.

I don't think there is anything legally stopping your dad being a guarantor however the letting agency may well do a credit check on him.

Although you will hopefully be able to pay your rent what would happen if you fell behind? I can't imagine that someone in an IVA would have any excess to pay the rent, which would mean that your dad may be forced to fail the IVA and declare BR.
