Part 3 Making a withdrawal

You only need to complete this part if you are selling some or all of your shares now. If you are selling some of your shares, you have to have at least £100 left to transfer into a new account. If there is less than that, we'll sell the whole account, close the account and send you the proceeds. We must receive instructions for 100% of your holdings.

If you haven't already done so, you need to send us proof of your UK bank account, for example a bank statement which has been issued by post or printed in a branch within the last three months (but not ones printed off the internet). Alternatively, we can accept a pre-printedpay-in slip (normally found at the back of your cheque book) or a cancelled cheque. Without proof of your bank account we will be unable to send the proceeds to your bank/building society and a cheque will be dispatched to the registered address.

Please complete your bank details below.

Verifying your identity

Before we can pay your proceeds out to you, we need to have verified your identity. There's information on our website ctinvest.co.uk about the documents we can accept for proof of your bank details and identity verification.

The Lifetime ISA has a current annual investment limit of £4,000. If you have more than this in your Child Trust Fund account, the remaining shares can be transferred into an ISA or General Investment Account.

To open your Lifetime ISA you'll need to complete part 5 to indicate how much you'd like to make available to invest by selling from your current holdings.

Additional options

The account fees will be set so that they are deducted from your account. If you would like to pay these fees by Direct Debit, you can change this through the Investor Portal or complete the form "Paying your fees by Direct Debit".

Dividends will continue to be reinvested into your new account. You can change this through the Investor Portal or complete the form "Investment trust dividend". Applicable to ISA and GIA accounts only.

Part 5 Opening a Lifetime ISA

Please complete this section if you wish to use some or all of your investments to open a Lifetime ISA. You need to decide how much you would like to make available to invest in your Lifetime ISA, by selling from your current holdings. There is a dealing charge of £12 for each fund selected in the Lifetime ISA.

Please complete the value of shares you wish to sell from each investment trust in Column 1, and use column 2 to allocate funds between your investments.

*This is a legacy investment available only to existing holders, so although you can sell from it, you can't buy into the same fund in the Lifetime ISA.
