II SIPP: cash account withdrawal

monaymadlol

Hi -- when I set up my ii sipp, I was feeding into my the cash account on the platform whilst I waited for the tax relief to be paid, and continue to feed into it. It took a few months before I then chose my monthly investments and monthly drip fed into there from the cash account.

As a result , I've got cash built up there.

Am I allowed to withdrew some of that back into my bank account, with or without penalty, given it will also include the tax relief in there?

Why ? The money is already in the pension, and you can presumably afford the continuing payments you already make. Just invest the spare money within the pension now and continue as is.

You could invest it in a money market fund if you want to leave it 'cash like'
