How To Top Up CPF
In addition to contributing to your CPF accounts, there is another way to boost your CPF savings by topping up or transferring the money to your CPF accounts. This way you can increase your own CPF savings or your loved ones’ using the RSTU (Retirement Sum Topping-Up) scheme. If you are under 55 years old you can top up your own and loved ones’ special account. If you are 55 years old and above you can top up your own and loved ones’ retirement account. There are benefits of topping up your CPF accounts such as growing your CPF accounts with risk-free and high interest rates (it’s guaranteed by the Singapore government so it is very safe), you can enjoy tax relief up to SGD 7.000 per year if you top of for your own CPF accounts and additional tax relief up to SGD 7.000 per year if you top up for your parents, grandparents, parents in-law siblings and your spouse and last but not least you will receive higher monthly payouts when you are 65 years old.
