You can buy government bonds in TreasuryDirect. You must open an account with Treasury Direct. Complete the treasury form and submit it to the Federal Reserve Bank or to a bank branch. You would then receive a confirmation of your account with a unique account number that you would use in purchasing government bonds. Choose in what form you would wish to buy a government bond, either a competitive or non-competitive bid. You submit a tender form with a check indicating the exact amount of the bonds face value. If the price in auction is lower than what you have bided, you will receive a check for the difference. If it is higher, you will receive an amount due notice for the difference. After your bid has been accepted, Federal Reserve will send a confirmation.
