Can I file and amended return in order to purchase savings bonds?

No. When you file an amended return you can only get your refund in the form of a check that the IRS mails to you. The IRS does not send direct deposits nor savings bonds to issue refunds for amended returns.

A tax refund from an amended federal tax return, Form 1040-X, cannot be used to directly purchase savings bonds.
