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.

Will a Series EE savings Bond pay interest beyond its maturity date?
Upon maturity the Series EE savings bond stops paying interest which brings up an interesting option for holders of matured savings bonds. Since the banks are paying close to zero on savings there is really no financial penalty for holding the Series EE bonds past the maturity date. In addition, federal tax on the interest earned on the savings bonds are not due until the bonds are actually cashed in which gives the holder the flexibility of shifting income to a particular year. For someone nearing retirement and holding Series EE bonds which have matured it would probably make sense to hold off on cashing in the bonds until retirement when the bond holder would probably have lower income and thus a lower tax rate.
