Multiple pension and ill health early access

If I request early access to one of my pensions does this get recorded by hmrc so that I also have immediate access to the 2 other pension schemes?
Can I choose just to have early access to one pension?

I depends on the individual scheme rules.

You can choose to apply to just one of your pension schemes. If they agree to ill health early retirement (and medical evidence which supports the rules of their particular scheme will be required), it doesn't mean you'll qualify under the rules of any of your other schemes. As Silvertabby has pointed out, schemes have individual rules.Horace92 said:If I request early access to one of my pensions does this get recorded by hmrc so that I also have immediate access to the 2 other pension schemes?
Can I choose just to have early access to one pension?Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!1 -
I presume you are referring to DB pensions - you can access DC pensions currently at age 55 regardless of health.1
