My sisters and I inherited some EE bonds from our Mom. The bonds were not redeemed, they have been transferred to our names.
I understand that I can claim the interest earned up until the time they were transferred on Mom's 1040.
However, Treasury Direct will not keep track of the claimed interest and will not issue a 1099-INT until the bonds are redeemed.
Does anyone have a suggestion on a good way to keep track of the interest that Mom paid taxes on when the remainder will need to be paid when the bond is redeemed?
