If you are on benefits you will not get an IPA and hence pay nothing. The OR will only take moneys if you have a surplus after your SOA.

And your surplus must be more than £99 per month.

If you are on a long term benefit, such as incapacity benefit, employment support allowance etc then the OR can ask for an IPA if you have a disposable income over the £100 threshold

as debtinfo has said they USED to ask for a voluntary contribution but you could refuse and they could do nothing about it .
