Do I get taxed in a High-Yield Savings Account?

Modified on Wed, 19 Nov at 1:06 AM

Yes, the interest earned in a High-Yield Savings Account is considered taxable income. You must report this interest on your annual tax return, and the financial institution will provide a Form 1099-INT for your records. Interest may be subject to federal and, depending on your state, state income tax.
