iDeCo annual one-off payment (or two payments)

Post by RetireJapan »

Is anyone doing this? I kind of missed the point where it became an option... ooops.

Here's the SBI explanation: https://go.sbisec.co.jp/prd/ideco-onlin ... te/013875/

This wasn't available as an option on the application form when I created my iDeCo account earlier this year. I would love to swich to yearly to save on the ¥103 fee on each transfer, but the paperwork for the change is probably crazy...

Please let us know if you find out how to do it for SBI.

「年払い」は「年に1回の支払い」ではなく「支払いを年単位で考えて決める仕組み」
年払いでは、年に1回だけ払うということではなく、掛金の拠出を「年単位」で考えて決められる仕組みです。毎年12月から翌年11月までを1つの単位(拠出単位期間)として、加入者がどの月にいくら拠出できるか事前に決めます(なお掛金の引き落としは翌月26日なので、納付月では「1月から12月まで」という単位になります)。

たとえば毎月1万円拠出し、ボーナスが出る6月と12月だけ拠出額を増やすといったことを事前に決めて申し込むことができます(引き落としは拠出月の翌月なので、拠出月を5月と11月にする必要があります)。この場合、年払いですが拠出(引き落とし)は12回となります。

Does this also give a better rundown?
年単位拠出」は人によって向いている人と向いていない人がいます。たとえば、預金など元本確保型商品を選ぶなら、「年単位拠出」で年1回の支払いにして、国民年金基金連合会にかかる手数料を抑えるとよいでしょう。一方、投資信託など運用商品で資産形成したい場合は、「ドルコスト平均法」の恩恵を受けられる、従来の「月払い」の方が向いています。

「月払い」か「年単位拠出」か、あなたに向いているのはどっち?
毎月の収入が不安定な自営業の人は、運用商品にかかわらず「年単位拠出」が使いやすいでしょう。収入を予測し、月ごとに掛け金を自由に設定したりして、やりやすい方法で年間限度額まで拠出して、節税メリットを十分に享受したいですね。

いかがでしたでしょうか。便利そうな「年単位拠出」ですが、手続きに時間がかかるので、簡単に「今月増額しよう」といったことはできません。変更も年1回しかできませんので、思いつきで決めるのではなく、iDeCoの掛け金をどうしたほうが自分にとってよいのか、計画を十分に練って検討してみてくださいね

"Annual contribution" is good for some people and bad for others. For example, if you choose a principal-secured product such as a deposit, you may want to make annual payments with "annual contributions" to reduce the fees charged to the National Pension Fund Federation. On the other hand, if you want to build assets with investment products such as investment trusts, the traditional "monthly payment" method that can benefit from the "dollar cost averaging method" is more suitable .

Which is more suitable for you, "monthly payment" or "annual contribution"?
Self-employed people with unstable monthly income may find it easier to use “annual contributions” regardless of the products they manage. I would like to fully enjoy tax-saving benefits by forecasting income, freely setting monthly premiums, and contributing to the annual limit in an easy way.

What did you think. It seems to be convenient “contribution by year”, but it takes time to process, so you cannot easily say “Let's increase this month”. You can only make changes once a year, so rather than make a decision on your own, carefully consider your plans for what you should do with your iDeCo stakes.
