- write down any questions you may have and bring them with you to your in person counselling session.

Setting and achieving financial goals overview
The insolvency counselling process

You should now be getting close to the end of your insolvency (unless your BIA Insolvency Counsellor has customized your counselling and rearranged the order of the online modules to better suit your individual needs). The modules in the planning for the future stage are meant to prepare you for post-insolvency success. They will provide you with tools to help you stay on track.
Your financial goals serve as a guide to help you define your path and keep you on it.
Setting financial goals will help you take control of your future! This step is an important component of financial success.
The aim of this module is to learn the fundamental skill of setting financial goals and the information needed for achieving them. During this module you will choose a few financial goals to take to your in-person counselling session. You will work with your counsellor to come up with a plan to achieve these post-insolvency goals. Your counsellor will help you to make sure that your financial goals align with your budget.

If you have questions, write them down and bring them to your in-person counselling session.
