If you have a gift in the box now and it stays there until January 2024, then it cannot be redeemed until 2024. In the meantime, if you buy another bond on your own account in 2023, it must meet the one year holding period minimum, so it also cannot be redeemed until 2024. For liquidity maximization, I think a better option would to deliver the currently held gift on January 1, 2023 and buy a new gift to be delivered in 2024.Considering a portion of my IBonds wont even have the 9% plus kick in until September, this means I suspect I will buy more Jan. 1 and keep the gift in the gift box another year.
