Question: Where do I enter a EE US Savings Bond amount on form 8815?

My bond has a redemption value that increased by $1,300.00. On what line of this form would I put this amount?

Answer: If your EE Bond interest qualifies for an exclusion for higher education expenses, use Form 8815 to figure the amount of the exclusion.

Form 8815 Line 5 is for the total proceeds of the bond. Line 6 is for the interest of $1,300.
