How do you include the interest income from the redemption of Series EE Bonds? I need help in accounting for some Series EE bonds I had cashed in in 2006 on my federal tax return. There were various bonds I had that were originally issued between 1983 and 1986. From the bank I cashed them in at I received a "Statement of Interest Paid for Redemption of US Savings Bonds", but not a 1099-INT. This statement shows the breakdown and total Interest I earned on the bonds. Should I just assume that statement I received is the 1099-INT? I am planning on using that information to include in my Interest Income section, but am not sure if I should have received a 1099-INT as well. Does anybody have any information to help me out? I did my preliminary return using HR Block software. I wasn't totally sure where to include this amount. I added it as Interest Income, but I'm not sure if that's correct. I never received the 1099INT for the amount, just the statement indicating the total interest income earned from the redemption. The software seemed to indicated a 1099INT should have been received. There was also no place to indicate that they were Series EE bonds, so where it said enter name of Bank I included Name-Series EE Redemption. Think that is sufficient? Thanks
Cashed savings bonds taxed as income if I used it for tuition? In May 2006 I cashed in about $950 worth of savings bonds some family gave me when I was young (27-30 years ago). I took this money and put it in my checking account and immediately used the proceeds (and then some...) to pay off my outstanding college tuition bill. Do I need to pay income taxes on this amount? Because the bank sent me an income statement for the $950 and the school has sent me nothing. I know that higher education tuition is normally tax deductible for an unlimited number of years, which is different than when I first started college. Thanks!

If they don't pay tax on the income, then why don't they just make a ton of money by buying federal bonds and issuing tax free state bonds?

is it a good idea to hold all equities in retirement accounts and all fixed income/bonds in after tax accounts? Or should you have a diversity of stocks and bonds in both your pre-tax retirement accounts and your after tax accounts. It seems like you would want to have your more volatile investments (equities, high yield bonds) in your retirement account because of the longer time horizon and your less volatile ones (short term bonds, money market) in your after tax account in case you need to access the funds -- so long as the overall mix of stocks vs bonds in both accounts together presents an acceptable level of risk. Is that right?
Fixed Income Notes/Bonds? I'd very much like to invest in a note or bond that will pay a monthly or semi-annual income (i.e. actually pay cash every month or quarter).

If I bought a $10,000 bond/note at whatever interest (1,2,3,4%..) which ones would pay fixed income out and how much would that amount be? Please don't say "You're better off buying..." because I have my reasons for wanting a fixed income investment.

How should I invest my income tax refund? Municipal Bonds? Stocks?

Does income from Savings Bonds count against unemployment benefits in the state of Massachusetts? I was recently laid off, and am claiming unemployment benefits for Massachusetts. I have a few grand in Savings Bonds that I'd like to cash in to help get me by a bit longer past my severance pay, but I'm afraid that the money would count as 'earnings', and I will lose my unemployment checks for a few weeks. Personally, I consider this money a 'gift', as the bonds were bought by relatives during my childhood. I did not work for it, or 'earn' it, so I don't think it should count against my unemployment. Do they look at it the same way, or will I get stiffed? I intend to call up the Unemployment Office, but before I wait on hold forever, I figured I'd ask here. Yep, I am aware that both the Bonds and unemployment are taxable. Thank you.
