    Come November, the interest will have a new rate.

    If you’re going to purchase US Series I Savings Bonds, you most likely want to buy them in October to lock in the current interest rate.

    But read below because October 31 is too late!

    Interest Rate Reset

    The interest rate for I bonds will reset in November. This means buying I Bonds on or after October 31st, 2022 will result in losing the opportunity to earn interest at 9.62% for the first 6 months.
