Deceased parents missing I bond

By Terry Savage on November 04, 2023 | Chicken Money

1. Found an I bond receipt that shows I’m a co-owner but no actual bond(issued 4/2006) how can I find out if the bond(s) are still active or if parent cashed them in?
2. If bonds still exists can they be reissued to me?
3.will I have to pay any initial taxes when filing next years tax return if I’m not cashing bond in this year?

If the receipt shows the serial number of the bond or the actual names on the bond, they can replace it easily if it was not sold already.
