How Kelly wiped over $215,000 in ATO debt and protected her home and business
Kelly’s story
Operating as a sole trader tiler since 2014, Kelly’s business was her only source of income. Unfortunately, without a system to set aside money for taxes, her ATO debt spiralled to nearly $350,000. With jointly owned real property, motor vehicles, and her livelihood on the line, she needed a plan to manage her historical tax debt while allowing her to continue trading. We helped her establish a Personal Insolvency Agreement (PIA) that protected her assets, saved her business, and wiped over 60% of her debt.

The challenge
Despite having a viable business and correcting her financial habits for the future, the sheer size of Kelly’s historical ATO debt threatened everything she had built.
The solution
Comprehensive financial assessment
Strategic protection
Favourable creditor negotiation
Tailored repayment structure
The result
Kelly successfully executed a Personal Insolvency Agreement, removing the immediate threat to her livelihood and personal assets. With over $215,000 of debt wiped and a clear, five-year instalment plan in place, she secured her financial future while confidently continuing to run her tiling business.
Consolidating massive tax debt
After years of running his own business as a shotfirer, Dom was left with $130,000 in debt – mostly owed to the ATO – and no way to manage it as a regular employee. Bankruptcy would have returned nothing to creditors and left him with little to show for his working years. We arranged a Personal Insolvency Agreement, wiping 40% of his debt and consolidating the rest into a single affordable weekly payment, letting him keep his vehicle and move forward free of ATO pressure.
Halving severe business debt
When Michael’s business collapsed in the wake of COVID, he was left with $133,000 in debt across the ATO, credit cards, and personal loans. After attempts to negotiate directly with creditors failed, we structured a Part X Personal Insolvency Agreement – allowing him to retain his vehicle, avoid bankruptcy, and settle his debt at just 50 cents in the dollar.

Very helpful with working things out with me
Hi I just want to share my experience so far with credit revive, I had the choice of credit repair Australia or credit revive, and I think i definitely made the right choice, credit repair Australia wanted to charge me almost double the amount I am paying with credit revive and i have been looked after very well, I have not one complaint and they took care of all my debts very swiftly and have taken a huge weight off my shoulders, I even think that the people I have dealt with are nicer and more polite and more understanding than credit repair Australia because from memory I had an argument or 2 and hung up on whoever I was talking to with credit repair Australia so i definitely recommend CREDIT REVIVE to anyone who is need of help and are struggling day to day with keeping up with your bills, I have been able to keep my brand new car that i would have surely lost by now if I wasn’t saved by credit revive I am very grateful for their support and services and i have already give them some sales pitches to friends and family in similar situations and I will continue to praise them and steer people in their direction if need be! Thank you for you support i appreciate it very much 😊🙏🏼
