Was the limit raised for commuting an RA into cash?


Question:

With the 2012/2013 legislation, did the minimum amount of R75 000 change for commuting of a retirement annuity entirely into cash?

Answer:

Kuby,

You may commute a retirement annuity entirely into cash if the balance, at retirement (earliest age 55), is R75 000 or less. This limit was not raised in the latest budget.
