What is an uncrystallised funds pension lump sum (UFPLS)?


Individual lump sums (UFPLS) are another way to take money out of your pension. In this case, you take your money in chunks. Each withdrawal is up to 25% tax free. The remaining 75% is taxed as income.

The maximum tax-free cash you can take from all your pensions is £268,275.

When withdrawing from your pension it's important to plan long term, so you have enough to last you through retirement.
