I am currently under CPF LIFE and have deferred my monthly payouts. What should I do if I want to change my payout start age?

It depends on whether you are starting your payouts at an earlier age or later age.

For members who want to start payouts at an earlier age
If you wish to receive your payouts earlier (for example, currently deferred and will start at age 69, but wants to start at age 67 instead), please let us know only one month before your desired payout start date, and not anytime earlier, via the Plan my monthly payouts service.
For members who want to start payouts at a later age
We will send you a notification three months before your original payout start date. If you prefer to delay your payouts to a later age (for example, currently deferred and will start at age 68, but wants to start at age 69 instead), you can submit your request via the Plan my monthly payouts service when you receive the notification.
