PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT July 21, 2000*
IDS Life of New York Flexible Portfolio Annuity
S-6163 F (5/00)
The following information supplements the information contained in your
prospectus:
If you purchase your annuity between May 20, 2000 and December 29, 2000, you are
eligible to participate in IDS Life of New York's Special Credit program. To
participate, you must make total "net purchase payments" of at least $100,000 to
your new annuity at any time during the program period of May 20, 2000 through
December 29, 2000. "Net purchase payments" equal purchase payments you make
minus any "surrenders" before the date we apply the Special Credit amount to
your annuity. "Surrenders" include amounts you can surrender without a surrender
charge, such as earnings. "Net purchase payments" do not include amounts
transferred, exchanged or rolled over from other IDS Life of New York annuities
or life insurance policies. The Special Credit amount is:
Total net purchase payments: Special Credit amount:
----------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
$100,000 - $499,999 1% of total net purchase payments
----------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
$500,000 or more $5,000
----------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
We will apply the Special Credit amount to the fixed account of your annuity on
May 18, 2001 if your annuity is still in force. We will apply the Special Credit
amount even if death benefits become payable or you apply your annuity contract
value to an annuity payout plan on or before May 18, 2001. We will send you a
confirmation when we apply the Special Credit amount to your annuity.
