For loved ones

Topping up your loved ones’ retirement savings

Boost your loved ones’ retirement savings by topping up to the current Full Retirement Sum (FRS) if they are below 55 or Enhanced Retirement Sum (ERS) if they are 55 and above.

Topping up with cash

Grow your loved ones’ CPF savings with cash

You can make a cash top-up of any amount to your loved ones. By doing so, you’ll also benefit from a tax relief of up to $8,000 per calendar year.

Under the Matched Retirement Savings Scheme (MRSS), the Government will match every dollar of cash top-ups made to the Retirement Account of eligible members, up to $600 per year

Topping up with CPF transfer

Transferring CPF savings to your spouse

Before making a transfer to your spouse, you’ll first have to set aside a basic level of retirement savings for your own monthly payouts, that is, the current Basic Retirement Sum (BRS).

Transferring to your parents and grandparents

If you would like to make a transfer to your parents or grandparents, you’ll first have to set aside the FRS for your own monthly payouts. For property owners (with a Singapore property which has a remaining lease which can last you to at least age 95), you can transfer an amount down to the BRS.

Transferring to your parents-in-law, grandparents-in-law and siblings

If you would like to make a transfer to your parents-in-law, grandparents-in-law or siblings, you’ll have to set aside the FRS for your own monthly payouts.

For others

Topping up the CPF savings of your employees or other CPF members

Grow your employee’s savings

When you make a top-up for your employee, you’ll enjoy an equivalent amount of tax deductions in the following year's tax assessment, while your employee receives tax relief of up to $8,000 per calendar year.

When your employees receive any tax relief, they will have to take into consideration the cash top-ups that they may have made for themselves. Your employee can only enjoy tax relief for cash top-ups to the current FRS. To make a top-up to your employee, please submit a request.

Request to top up

Topping up for other CPF members

Help grow the savings of people you care about in cash, even if they are not a family member or employee, so they can enjoy higher payouts during retirement.

Note that such top-ups are not eligible for tax relief.

Ways to top up

You can make top ups by using the CPF Mobile app, via my cpf Online Services, or GIRO. You can top up easily simply by logging in with your Singpass.

Make regular top-ups with GIRO

You don’t need to top up a large sum in a single go. Use GIRO to make small top-ups, regularly.
