IBonds!!! PAGING jhogue!
Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2022 4:00 pm
I am 1 for 3 in getting $5,000 tax returns overpayments to buy $5,000 worth of IBonds. The two failed attempts resulted in me getting $5,000 refunds.
The one time it did work I received paper bonds in these denominations:
$1,000 - 4
$500 - 1
$200 - 1
$50 - 6
I understand that if somehow these were lost or destroyed I can communicate with Treasury Direct to get them replaced? If so, I assume I need to communicate certain information from each bond to them?
I am now primed to enter that relevant information into Quicken but I cannot tell what is the relevant information. Each of these bonds has an incredible amount of numbers on them.
Directly under my name and address is a line of four sets of numbers. The first two seem to be about 20 characters long while the third is only six and the last is one.
Beneath those ...
To the left of the emblem seems to be a uniform number that associates with the bond denomination. To the right of the emblem are all unique numbers (about 14 characters).
On the lower right are small font unique 10 character numbers. Under those numbers in the bottom right are numbers that somewhat correlate to the numbers to the right of the emblem. Their first letters seem to correlate with the denomination while each one ends in an I.
Thanks for whatever assistance you can give!
I could also take a picture of each one of these but I always prefer to have all my financial information of any type to be in Quicken.
