Hi
Hopefully someone can shed light on this issue... I've been diagnosed with terminal cancer and don't expect to live to anywhere near normal retirement age (I'm 31 now). I've a mothballed Local Authority final salary pension which I was paying into for about 4 years, and a 2 year old stakeholders pension. (We're not talking about a vast amount of money!) I'm about to stop paying into my stakeholders pension. My question is can I access the money in my pensions now?
I've search all over the web but can't find any answers to this. Loads of cashing in pensions when you get to 50 and the like, but nothing about situations like mine.
I would ask my IFA but he's gone silent on me, so thought I'd do some investigation on my own before finding another IFA who (hopefully) can help me.
Thanks in advance for any replies...
cheers
