Individuals contribute funds to a retirement annuity during their working years. The annuity provider invests these funds, and upon retirement, the individual receives regular payments, either for a specified period or for the rest of their life.
The age at which you can start receiving payments depends on the terms of the annuity contract and your retirement plans. Payments can start immediately (immediate annuity) or be deferred to a future date (deferred annuity).
In most cases, contributions to a retirement annuity are not allowed after retirement. Contributions are typically made during the accumulation phase, leading up to retirement.
The treatment of remaining funds upon the annuitant's death depends on the type of annuity. Some annuities provide for a death benefit, allowing beneficiaries to receive the remaining value.
Early withdrawals from a retirement annuity may be subject to penalties and taxes. However, some annuities offer features that allow for withdrawals under certain circumstances, such as disability.
