Does anyone know if you can start taking the cash from your SIPP including tax, and defer taking the tax free lump sum?
I believe it’s up to you depending on the scheme rules. Purely out of interest though why would you defer the TF element ?
You either take a TFLS - sometimes worth doing whilst you still work, perhaps, which avoids triggering the MPAA….which leaves the rest of that TFLS portiin in drawdown mode to access later (as income, attracting your rate of income tax on);
….or you take some cash, 25% of which is tax free.
I certainly discussed it with my FA when I was lining up my ducks.
Logically you are right but pension rules seem pretty complicated sometimes.

I am looking to start taking the pension from the SIPP next tax year, and am lucky enough to be limiting myself to topping up my other income sources to the 20% bracket limit.
This tax year I will be under the 20% limit, and was looking to take out just enough to take me up to the limit, to max out the bracket.
Undecided about how to actually take the TFLS, and so was looking to defer that decision until the next tax year
Yup get that. This tax year I will be under the 20% limit, and was looking to take out just enough to take me up to the limit, to max out the bracket.

You could of course still take the TFC now ( if you “ have to “ ) and invest that elsewhere but otherwise if allowed to leave it in then buys you breathing space.
Be interested to see what your provider says about this.

Depends on the reasons behind taking TFC but you might put the proceeds into ISA’s or IIB’s or tax relief schemes. All depends on how your Pension is viewed and whether part of your overall wealth pot or stand alone and what your overall future financial position is like.

Utilising this years ISA allowance would be one reason - move cash from one tax free wrapper to another
Not being awkward but what difference does it make if you don’t use the allowance? Your cash is still tax free, still invested and sits outside your estate (until changes take place next year).Following this as next year I'm going to be 55 and (hopefully) finishing in my current job.
To be honest, I have no real idea how to manage the future financials. Definitely going to have to continue working as my 'pot' probably isn't going to be enough. Especially need to think about how to invest the lump sum i'll be taking. So following with interest.

Your cash is still tax free, still invested and sits outside your estate (until changes take place next year).Great to see a thread on this. There a bunch of conundrums that have emerged now between the balance of where to take income from SIPs vs ISA vs GIA etc and then also the balance between fixed income and equities.
Even a global tracker is heavily skewed these days , such are the values of the Mag. 7. The UK market looks unlikely to be a great place to invest with the recent anti business behaviour in Westminster.
