PSI16.2.16 - Discontinuance of Schemes: Winding-Up - Form of benefits on Winding-Up - Commutation


(This archived guidance relates to HMRC discretionary practice before the 6th April 2006. For current guidance on Registered Pension Schemes see the Registered Pension Schemes Manual)

These individual policies should not permit the deferred benefit to be commuted on the member’s subsequent serious ill-health (see PSI8.3.15-23) unless the Life Office concerned has first made satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any tax due under section 599, ICTA 1988. Refer any correspondence or enquiries from Life Offices or Tax Districts about these arrangements to Compliance Audit Section .
