You can commute up to 25% of your pension, but it shouldnt exceed certain tax limits; otherwise, you could be charged. Its worth talking to your pension provider to see if you can use commutation for your specific pension and get expert advice from a financial adviser beforehand.
Buying Added Pension: this is extra pension you can purchase to increase your benefits on retirement and we recommend you consider doing this. Its very flexible- with a minimum contribution of just 25 a month. You can do it for a year at a time and include your spouse/partner if you wish.
Disadvantages of Commuted Pension Receiving a large lump sum requires careful financial planning. There is a risk that without proper management, the funds could be spent too quickly or invested poorly, leading to financial difficulties later in life.
Understanding commutation/inverse commutation AFPS 05 provides an automatic tax-free pension lump sum of 3 times the pension. You can give up some or all of the tax-free lump sum in order to improve your taxable pension. This is called inverse commutation.
When you retire, you can opt to give up part of your yearly entitlement to your pension in exchange for a one-off lump sum, known as commutation. We explore what you should know and why its essential to get financial advice before making such a big financial decision.

AFPS 15 pensions are calculated using a system called Career Average Revalued Earnings (CARE). Every scheme year (1 April to 31 March), the MOD adds 1/47th of your annual pensionable earnings into your CARE pension pot. Your pension will start to build up from your first day of paid Service into a pension pot.
If you need income certainty and worry about outliving your retirement savings, the pension is the way to go. If you want to attempt to leave money behind, the commuted value is the way to go, assuming you dont spend it.
