Debt Repayment Options
See below for different strategies for managing and eliminating debt.
Consumer Proposal
A consumer proposal is a formal and legally binding agreement between you and your creditors to help settle your unsecured debt. Administered by your Licensed Insolvency Trustee, a consumer proposal renegotiates and reduces your debt to creditors. You repay a portion of the original debt based on your financial abilities over 5 years. During this period, you’re protected from creditor collection actions.
Credit Counselling
Credit counselling services help you develop a budget and manage your finances to repay your debt. You can sign up for a debt management plan through a credit counsellor, through which a credit counsellor can negotiate lower interest rates, design a personalized repayment plan, and simplify your monthly payments.
Debt Consolidation
Debt consolidation combines your debt into one loan and monthly payment. This method can provide a lower interest rate than credit cards and other debts.
Repay Debt on Your Own
Repaying debt on your own means making regular payments according to the original agreement with your creditors. You can also negotiate your payments with your creditors on your own, but it may not be the best choice if you have a lot of debt.
