Your pension check: get the ball rolling
Taking pension money early isn’t right for everyone because it could leave you with less to live on in retirement. That’s why it makes sense to talk with an independent and regulated adviser, such as Portafina, first.
Why start checking your pension early?
The process of getting your pension checked and then releasing funds from it can take a while. In our experience it takes 12 weeks, on average, to get a client from initial request to summary stage. Depending on your current provider, and how old or complicated the scheme is, the process can sometimes take longer.
By starting your pension check early, you are increasing the chances of getting the money you need released to your bank account as close as possible to your 55th birthday.
