Your normal pension will be taken into consideration for an IPA, and I would have thought that a lump sum would be taken by the OR for the creditors.

However, I'm not 100% on that so hopefully someone more in the know will be along to answer.

Hi m88,

My pension is inland revenue approved, and I was told this would be 'safe' in bankruptcy and they would not be able to touch it. Not sure about other works' pensions though. I would think private pensions might be a target though.

hiya

I was told by OR they would not be interested in my Pension unless i was going to cash it in, which is very unlikely as i am only 25.

I should have said - if you take it during your BR period!

If you are due to retire before you were discharged, then it probably would be at risk - otherwise, it will be ok.
