Do you have to pay taxes on a CD when it matures?
Just like deposit accounts, CDs earn interest over time until you cash them out at maturity. The amount you pay to buy the CD is generally not taxable, even when you cash it in; however, any interest you earned on the CD before it matured is taxable income, and you’ll have to report it to the IRS.
