Yes, you can take a lump sum payout from your pension if you resign; however, you should not. Instead, you should open an IRA account. You should have your employer roll over your pension directly into your IRA account so you do not pay a 20% penalty. If you chose to take a check from your employer and use it to open an IRA account then you pay a 20% penalty. Please do not ask me to explain the tax code of The United States of America.
