Should I pay/submit an estimated tax payment on the redemption of I-Bonds during the course of the year. Ie. I redeem I bonds now (March). And, then pay estimated tax on the interest for those I-bonds in the first quarter April 15th? OR Can I wait until the end of the year without a penalty? I know that for Treasuries like bills, bonds, notes... I have to pay estimated tax for interest payments due the next scheduled estimated tax payment date.

Yes, you need to pay the taxes on them on April 15th if you redeem them now in March. If you do not, and you have a tax due, you will have a penalty at the end of the year. The IRS is a pay as you go system. Regardless the source of the income, if it is taxable, you must pay on the 15th day of the month after the quarter ends.
