whatever the goverment regulations stipulate. I will purchase the bond in the winner's name when the winner is declared. Cannot buy before , because owneres name, addy, and ss# must be on the application

JA Young Grower, I'm not sure on this but I think you have to be a U.S. citizen to hold a U.S. Savings bond.
