前阵子有一些讨论如果top up的钱包括利息超过了FRS,超过的那部分可不可以提取,有些不同看法。

我写信问了下CPF,特意提到top up及利息超过FRS的话会如何。回答是只要在FRS以上的就可以提取。这跟我之前理解的还有网上文章所述一致。

对绝大多数人而言,top up加利息不会超过FRS,不存在这个问题。但还是把这个回复发出来供大家参考吧。

Thank you for your enquiries of 6 January 2022.

By default, a member's Special Account (SA) savings will be transferred first, followed by Ordinary Account (OA) savings to form the Retirement Account (RA) up to the applicable Full Retirement Sum (FRS) at 55. The process of setting aside the FRS in RA is automatic and applies to all members turning 55.

If you had received top-ups before age 55, the top-ups and accrued interest in your SA will be prioritised and transferred first to your RA when you turn 55. Any excess in the SA and/or OA, above the FRS applicable to you, can be withdrawn when you apply for withdrawal at age 55.
