16. How are savings bonds taxed? Savings bond interest is exempt from state and local income tax. Savings bond interest is subject to federal income tax; however, taxation can be deferred until redemption, final maturity, or other taxable disposition, whichever occurs first.
For instance, if you had a $100 Series EE savings bond from the U.S. government, which has a guarantee that it will double in value in 30 years, your bond would be worth $200. However, if it was a different type of bond or had a different interest rate, the value could be quite different.
You can skip paying taxes on interest earned with Series EE and Series I savings bonds if youre using the money to pay for qualified higher education costs. That includes expenses you pay for yourself, your spouse or a qualified dependent. Only certain qualified higher education costs are covered, including: Tuition.
Key Takeaways. Interest from EE U.S. savings bonds is taxed at the federal level but not at the state or local levels for income. The interest that savings bonds earn is the amount that a bond can be redeemed for above its face value or original purchase price.
Another thing to note: Savings bonds dont get a step-up in basis at death the way stocks or other investments do. That means you have to pay tax on the full amount of interest due on the bonds as the inheritor.
