I pay into an NHS Pension Scheme Additional Voluntary Contribution (AVC) plan. What are my options with regard to this if I leave the scheme?
Your NHSPS AVC plan is not tied to your main scheme benefits. So, for example you can retain your main NHS benefits in the NHS Pension Scheme whilst transferring your NHSPS AVC.  This can be transferred to an existing Free Standing AVC or personal pension/stakeholder pension provided it has the relevant approval under the Finance Act 2004.

If you have been paying into the NHSPS for less than two years you will be obliged to take a refund of a lump sum equal to the realisable value of the investments you have made into the NHS AVC (less tax).

Don’t Wait, Transfer Your QROPS UK Pension Fund To India Now!

  Did you know that India became the world's fifth largest economy in 2019 in terms of nominal GDP, moving ahead of both France and the UK? While the pandemic and global economic slowdown has pushed it back to 6th place, the CEBR (Centre for Economics and Business Research) has forecasted India becoming the world’s third largest economy by 2030, moving past the UK by 2025, Germany by 2027, and Japan by 2030. If you’ve lived and worked in the UK and have accumulated a pension fund there, the time has never been better to transfer that pension fund to India through a QROPS.

ULIPS QROPS SCHEMES IN INDIA

  Did you know that investing in individual stocks is a lot more expensive and time-consuming than investing in mutual funds and ULIPS? Additionally, not everyone can afford professional money-management, which is why mutual funds and ULIPS were created, to bring expert financial advice and stock analysis to the masses. They also offer a well-documented prospectus for each fund, as well as semi-annual or annual reports about how the fund invests. If you’re an NRI who’s worked in the UK and and are now planning to retire in India, you can move your pension funds into a QROPS ‘in specie’, which means you can invest it in ULIPS in India, under the QROPS umbrella for tax shelter. Alternatively, you could invest in fixed instruments with fixed interest rates of up to 10.5%. Considering the Indian economy is still booming with FDI pouring in and the Bank of England has predicted the worst recession in 300 years, this might just be the right time to get your pension out. Is there a penalty in
