Can You Annuitize A Fixed Annuity? 
Yes - to annuitize an annuity means you are electing to start receiving monthly payments from your annuity . When the annuity is created , you have options on how you would like it paid out -LRB- immediate annuity vs. deferred annuity and whether you want to receive those for a certain number of years or continue on for life -RRB- . I hope the information is helpful - please feel free to contact me for help setting up an annuity and if you have any other questions . Thanks very much .
