GOOD is correct, AS are you to a point, the pension is exempt, but as soon as it pays out it is no longer a pension and is now a cash asset which is not exempt |

Hi Colin, I have changed your username to protect your anonymity.
I'm sorry I can't answer your question, but hopefully one of the experts will be able to help you shortly.

I was told by the fire service legal team that any pension including lump sum would be exempt from a bankruptcy order as it is HMRC approved and is protected, can you please advise,
Thank You again, |

Any income that you have will be assessed as your salary would be. If you have more than £100 left over each month after rent, bills, etc. have been paid then you would have to pay a percentage of this (between 50% and 70%) as an IPA.
If you receive a lump sum and then declare BR shortly afterwards the OR would take most/all of this and use it to pay your creditors. If you took the lump sum and used it for something other than paying your creditors and then declared BR you could have problems explaining to the OR why the money wasn't used to pay your creditors when you knew that you were probably going to have to declare BR. |
