The customer’s IVA has failed. If the tax credits overpayment has not already been remitted, there is no further action to take. If the tax credits overpayment has been remitted, the remission will be cancelled to allow the overpayment to go back into recovery. If the customer has made any repayments under the terms of the IVA before the failure, the Voluntary Arrangement Service (VAS) will advise the amount at a later date. A further remission will then be required to reduce the tax credits overpayment by that amount.

OE02 - IVA action completed. Case awaiting issue of a manual award notice for tax year 20XX - 20XX

IVA action has been completed but it’s been identified whilst working the IVA that a manual award notice needs to be issued.
