| 2) |
CPF Board must receive the voluntary contributions by the last working day of the year in order for the year’s CPF Annual Limit to be applied to the contributions. Backdating of voluntary contributions to previous years is not allowed. |

Any voluntary contributions made in excess of the limit will be refunded without interest. |
