Series I Savings Bonds

NEWS: The initial interest rate on new Series I savings bonds is 9.62 percent. You can buy I bonds at that rate through October 2022. Learn more.

KEY FACTS: I Bonds can be purchased through October 2022 at the current rate.  That rate is applied to the 6 months after the purchase is made.  For example, if you buy an I bond on July 1, 2022, the 9.62% would be applied through January 1, 2023.  Interest is compounded semi-annually.

REMEMBER!  You can only purchase up to $10,000 in I bonds each calendar year.  If you buy I Bonds exceeding that limit, we will process a refund, which may take up to 16 weeks.

Use I bonds to:

• save in a low-risk product that helps protect your savings from inflation
• supplement your retirement income
• give as a gift
• pay for education

How do I bonds earn interest?

Interest on an I bond is a combination of two rates:

1. A fixed rate of return which remains the same throughout the life of the I bond
   
   and
2. A variable inflation rate which we calculate twice a year, based on changes in the nonseasonally adjusted Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for all items, including food and energy (CPI-U for March compared with the CPI-U for September of the same year, and then CPI-U for September compared with the CPI-U for March of the following year).

Interest is earned on the bond every month. The interest is compounded semiannually:  twice a year, the interest the bond earned in the previous six months is added to the bond's principal value; then, interest for the next six months is calculated using this adjusted principal.

The interest and principal are paid to you when you cash the bond.
