Every individual contractor or contractor-qualifying individual working in California needs to file a $25,000 CSLB surety bond to establish or maintain their licensed status. Contractor companies structured as LLCs need a $100,000 CSLB bond to provide additional protection for employees.
The required bonds are a type of insurance agreement which guarantees reimbursement to the union for any financial losses caused by fraudulent or dishonest acts by officers or employees, such as theft, embezzlement, or forgery.
This is based on the current savings bond calculator rate which is 4.17%. The calculation is done by multiplying the $100 value by the current rate of 4.17%, providing an annual return of 4.17%. Each year, the $100 value of the bond increases at the same rate and thus after 30 years, the bond is worth $417.18.
After 20 years, the Patriot Bond is guaranteed to be worth at least face value. So a $50 Patriot Bond, which was bought for $25, will be worth at least $50 after 20 years. It can continue to accrue interest for as many as 10 more years after that.
