I-Bonds — separate accounts for spouses?

By Terry Savage on October 17, 2022 | Chicken Money

In order for both husband and I to purchase I-bond at $10,000 maximum, can we open a single account or must it be two?

Terry Says

You must each open a separate account with your own SS number.
But you can make your spouse a POD (payable on death) beneficiary, or a co-owner — And still each contribute $10,000.
