How to Get Debt Payment Assistance

One option for paying off your debt is to get a Debt Relief Order (DRO). A DRO is one way to deal with your debts if you owe less than £30,000, do not have much extra income, and don't own your home.

To get a DRO you need to contact the official receiver. The official receiver is an officer of the bankruptcy court, but you must apply through an authorised debt advisor. They'll help you fill out the paperwork.

There are six requirements you must have to be eligible for a DRO, they are

  1. You owe less than £30,000
  2. You have no more than £75 a month in spare income
  3. You have less than £2000 worth of assets
  4. You do not own a vehicle that's worth £2000 or more
  5. You've lived or worked in England or Wales within the last three years
  6. You have not applied for a DRO within the last six years
