If you win a significant amount while under debt review, you are NOT legally obligated to immediately pay off all debts. Your court order remains in effect.
However, it would be wise to:
• Settle all outstanding debts to exit debt review immediately
• Receive your clearance certificate faster
• Start rebuilding your credit score with a clean slate
• Invest the remainder wisely
You can choose to continue with your normal debt review payments if you prefer, but early settlement means freedom from debt review restrictions and the ability to access credit again. Contact your debt counsellor to discuss early settlement options and how to proceed.
