I'm really very pleased to hear that RYB. Sincere congratulations to you.

Enjoy that beer this evening!

Just found our discharge has been updated on the AIB website now, another bit of good news [:)]

That's good RYB.

Official!

Hi.

Can I ask did you have to do a final review thing for creditfix?

I answered this one on JintyMcSkintys thread but just to confirm, no final review. Everything went smoothly once I got my case to the closure team.

That's good news RYB. We were discharged on the 2nd March (having received form 5, then form 6 being issued and 14 days after assume form 7 was submitted. We're still waiting for the discharge to appear on the AiB site. Am I reading this right that the trustee has another 28 days to register the discharge with the AiB?

According to the website ( http://www.legislation.gov.uk/sdsi/2013/9780111021361)it can take up to 28 days. Am I reading this right?

Hi RoseG.

So at this stage your own discharge (Form 5) hasn't been updated on the Register of Insolvencies?

Hi TDA. Form 5 and Form 6 show up on the website for my husband - I cant access mine as only he was sent a letter with login details. Meanwhile the 14 days were up on 2nd March and nothing has shown up yet on the aib.gov.uk website which I check regularly. Does that clarify? I spoke to our trustee about the letter with login details and he said mine must have been lost in the post - he tried but doesn't know how to get another letter issued so I just have to rely on the info showing up in the AiB website.

It's not official until it's on the Register of Insolvencies RoseG.

I'd just watch for progress on that. They seem to be pretty quick once the trustee gets the form to them.

Still waiting and checking. TDA I contacted our trustee - he emailed back to say he'd sent off the form 7 and that he thought AiB are working through a backlog. It helps to know why but oh dear - am chomping at the bit! I wonder if others are in the same situation. RYB - its great yours is through.
