The existing CPF rules allow you to pledge your property and
withdraw part of your RA savings. If you chose the LIFEBalanced Plan or LIFE Basic Plan, you may have sufficient RAsavings to make a property pledge and withdraw part of yourRA savings. The monthly payout will be affected if you choose topledge your property9.
If you are on the LIFE Plus Plan or LIFE Income Plan, yourentire RA savings will be used for the annuity premium. Thus,you will not be able to withdraw any RA savings, even if you
make a property pledge.

Your RA savings may not be sufficient to provide you with monthly payouts until the annuity payout start age.This is because your RA savings will be consequently reduced when you make a property pledge. The
monthly payout from your annuity, which starts from the annuity payout start age, will not be affected.
2.1.4 Can I still pledge my property?

If you receive additional monies in your RA after your DDA (e.g.from top-ups or property refund), they will be paid as part ofyour RA monthly payouts. This could result in a differencebetween your RA monthly payouts and that from your annuity.
If you wish to purchase another annuity so that the RA monthlypayouts and the annuity will be about the same, please inform the
Board. You can do so by completing Form LID-App (1A) Application for Additional Annuity under CPF LIFE andreturning it to us. Alternatively, you can apply online via my cpfOnline Services- My Request.
