Understanding CPF LIFE

CPF LIFE (Lifelong Income For the Elderly) is a national annuity scheme that provides Singaporeans with a monthly income for life from age 65. You are automatically enrolled if your RA balance meets a minimum threshold.

Payouts depend on your RA balance at age 65. Setting aside the FRS ($213,000) provides the standard payout. The ERS ($426,000) gives about double. The Standard Plan provides higher payouts but less bequest; the Basic Plan is the reverse.

CPF Retirement — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CPF Full Retirement Sum (FRS) in 2024?
The Full Retirement Sum (FRS) for 2024 is $213,000. Members who turn 55 in 2024 need this amount in their Retirement Account to receive a basic monthly payout from CPF LIFE from age 65. The Basic Retirement Sum is $106,500 and the Enhanced Retirement Sum is $426,000.
How much CPF LIFE payout will I receive?
CPF LIFE payouts depend on your Retirement Account balance at age 55 and the plan you choose. Under the Standard Plan, a member with the 2024 FRS of $213,000 can expect approximately $1,300–$1,400 per month from age 65. Higher balances up to the ERS of $426,000 can provide over $2,400 per month.
What happens to my CPF Special Account at age 55?
At age 55, CPF creates a Retirement Account (RA). Your SA and OA savings (up to the FRS) are transferred into the RA. If your SA already exceeds the FRS, only the FRS amount is transferred. Funds in excess of FRS can be withdrawn.
Can I withdraw my CPF at 55?
From age 55, you can withdraw CPF savings above the Basic Retirement Sum (BRS), provided the BRS is met in the RA or property pledge. A minimum withdrawal of $5,000 is available regardless of RA balance. Full flexibility on CPF OA and SA balances above BRS.
What interest rate does my CPF earn?
The Ordinary Account earns a base interest of 2.5% per annum. The Special Account, MediSave Account, and Retirement Account earn 4% per annum. The first $60,000 of combined CPF balances earns an extra 1% interest (capped at $20,000 for OA). Members aged 55+ earn an additional 1% on the first $30,000 of RA balances.
