Pension - partial cash out

Pension - partial cash out

Product type:   Standard template | no legal review or advice

Price:  $88.00  

This document set permits an account-based or retirement phase TRIS pension to be partially commuted and the commutation amount to be cashed out as a lump sum. 

This document cannot be used for market linked or defined benefit pensions.

A partial (ie less than 100%) cash out of the pension will result in a portion of the superannuation interest underlying the pension to be paid as superannuation lump sum.  The portion of the superannuation interest not cashed out will continue to support the reduced pension.

A transition to retirement pension (a retirement phase TRIS pension) moves into retirement phase when the member has met a condition of release with nil cashing restriction (eg retirement or reaching age 65).  The trustee of the super fund has to be informed that the pension is in retirement phase, except for the condition of release where the member has reached age 65. 

A transition to retirement pension which is not in retirement phase cannot use this template as transition pension benefits are made up of preserved or restricted non-preserved components.

This template is not suitable if the cash-out is a full cash out (ie 100%).  In this case use the Pension - Full Cash Out template.  A full cash out of the pension will terminate the pension.
