with regard to your queries, you have not assets (of items that you have stated that the OR (official Receiver) would take) computers etc are these days taken as essential items With regard to IPO this is an Income Payment Order - the OR will go through your income and expenditure with you - if you have a disposable income (ie income minus allowed excpenditure) greater than £20 the OR will set up an income payment order which has a maximum duration of 36 months - ie you pay over to the bankruptcy any excess funds over £20 for 36 months towards your debts - if you do not have a disposable income you do not pay anything Hope this helps
