You may have other pensions you’ve lost track of over the years. If that’s the case, use the government’s pension tracing service.
There is a limit on the total value of pension savings you can build up through your lifetime without triggering an extra tax charge. This limit is called the lifetime allowance, or LTA.
When you apply to take your pension, we’ll ask you about any other pension savings you have. This is to calculate the percentage of your lifetime allowance you’ve used.
