Make a nomination View your nomination details Log in with your Singpass to check your nomination details. View nomination details -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Benefits WHY MAKE A CPF NOMINATION 1 You decide who gets your CPF savings With a CPF nomination, your CPF savings will be distributed to your nominees, according to your wishes. Without a CPF nomination, your CPF savings will be distributed by the Public Trustee’s Office to your family members based on the intestacy laws or Muslim Inheritance Certificate. You cannot decide which family member will receive your savings or how much they will receive. 2 Fast and convenient distribution of your CPF savings A CPF nomination allows your nominees to claim your savings quickly and conveniently. Without a CPF nomination, it can take up to six months for the Public Trustee’s Office to identify which of your family members are eligible to claim your savings. 3 No extra costs to distribute your CPF savings to your nominees Making a CPF nomination is free. Your nominees will not be required to pay any charges to claim your CPF savings when you pass on. Without a CPF nomination, the Public Trustee's Office will deduct an administrative fee from your CPF savings before distributing to your family members based on the intestacy laws or your Muslim Inheritance Certificate. Make a nomination now -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When to nominate WHEN TO MAKE OR REVIEW A NOMINATION 1 When you should make a CPF nomination You should make a CPF nomination as soon as you start working and building up your CPF savings. In fact, you can make a nomination once you turn 16. 2 Review your CPF nomination regularly After making your nomination, review your nomination regularly so that it can continue to meet your intention especially at major milestones like: * Marriage * Child birth * Divorce * Death of a nominee View nomination details 3 Marriage will revoke your CPF nomination Upon marriage, any existing CPF nomination will be revoked. This allows you to make provisions taking into account the change in your family nucleus. Do make a new CPF nomination after you get married so that your CPF savings can be distributed according to your wishes. On the other hand, divorce will not revoke your nomination. Make a nomination now Quick tip Make it a yearly reminder to review your CPF nomination at the start of the year. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How it works UNDERSTANDING WHAT’S INVOLVED IN NOMINATIONS HOW NOMINATION WORKS What a nomination covers 1. CPF savings* in your Ordinary, Special, MediSave, and Retirement Accounts 2. CPF LIFE unused premiums 3. Discounted Singtel shares * CPF savings cannot be included in your will because they do not form your estate. This arrangement protects your CPF savings from creditor claims on any outstanding debts you may have, and preserves your savings fully for your nominees or family members. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What isn’t covered under a nomination 1. Properties bought using your CPF savings 2. Payout from Dependants’ Protection Scheme (DPS) 3. Investments made under CPF Investment Scheme -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Distribution of your CPF savings Upon your demise, CPF Board will get in touch with your nominees to facilitate the distribution of your CPF savings. Your CPF savings will be distributed to them in cash. If you don’t have a nomination, your CPF savings will be transferred to the Public Trustee’s Office for them to distribute to your beneficiaries in accordance with the intestacy laws. Learn more -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What to consider THINGS TO NOTE BEFORE MAKING A NOMINATION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Who should receive your CPF savings and how much You’ll need to decide on your nominees and the percentage of your CPF savings each nominee should receive. You can specify anyone as a nominee, including people who don’t have a CPF account. Witnesses for your nomination Disputes on who should receive your CPF savings may sometimes arise after you have passed on. That is why you have to appoint two witnesses who can attest that you have made your nomination willingly and consciously. Your witnesses cannot be your nominee or an organisation. Disclosure of CPF account information Upon your demise, your next-of-kin may want to know how much CPF savings you have accumulated, who you have nominated to receive them and how much. To protect your privacy, only your nominees will be informed of the amount they will receive. They will not know how much CPF savings you have in total, or who else you have nominated to receive your CPF savings. This protects your privacy but can sometimes result in unhappiness. To avoid this, you may choose to authorise specific persons to access your CPF account information upon your demise. Without this explicit authorisation, your account information and nomination decisions will not be revealed.
