Tax Trivia: Refund Payments

Kelly Phillips ErbJanuary 18, 2011

We have a winner! See the correct answer in the comments.

Our next tax trivia question for the giveaway is:

For the 2010 tax season, taxpayers who claim a tax refund can opt to split their refunds into bank accounts or retirement accounts and buy up to $5000 in US savings bonds (Series I). Taxpayers who opt to use part or all of their refunds to purchase savings bonds must do so in increments of what dollar amount?

The first correct answer wins free free CompleteTax online tax prep software.

Remember that you have to comment on the actual post, not on email, Twitter or Facebook, in order to win (though feel free to comment that way for fun). You can read the rules for the giveaway and more about the prizes here.

What’s your guess?
