Cashing a bond at maturity refers to the process of redeeming the bond for its face value when it reaches its maturity date. At this time, the bondholder receives the principal amount originally invested, along with any final interest payment due. This marks the end of the bond's term, and the investor no longer holds that bond. It is a way for investors to recover their initial investment after the bond's designated period has elapsed.
Cashing in an EE bond early can result in the loss of interest if the bond is redeemed before it reaches its maturity date, which is typically 20 years. Specifically, if you redeem the bond within the first five years, you'll forfeit the last three months' worth of interest. After five years, you can cash it in without penalties, but you'll still receive only the interest earned up to that point.
The yield to maturity of a bond generally decreases over time as the bond approaches its maturity date. This is because as the bond gets closer to maturity, the price of the bond tends to increase, which in turn lowers the yield to maturity.
A zero coupon bond should be cashed at maturity to receive its full face value, as it does not pay periodic interest. Cashing it before maturity may result in a lower return, as it will typically trade at a discount to its face value. However, if you need immediate cash or if market conditions significantly change, you might consider selling it before maturity. Always assess your financial needs and market conditions before making a decision.
That would depend on the maturity

A callable bond is where the issuer has the ability to redeem the bond prior to maturity. A callable bond is where the bond hold has the ability to force the issuer to redeem the bond before maturity. Hope this helps.
Yield to maturity assumes that the bond is held up to the maturity date. This is a disadvantage. If the bond is a yield to call , it can be called prior to the maturity date. Thus, the ivestor should sell the callable bond prior to maturity if he expects that he will earn higer return by doing so (in other words when yeild to call is higher than held to maturity).
Callable is the designation of a bond that can be paid off earlier than its maturity date.
The savings bond is part of the estate. There could be legal consequences for cashing it.
