Baltimore’s Pimlico Race Course hosts the second leg of the Triple Crown this week. If you are lucky at the track, pick the winner, and win big, you must pay taxes.
Gambling Winners Can Owe Federal and State Taxes
In most cases, the IRS considers money or items you win by gambling to be taxable income. If you win items, you must report the fair market value of the items you win.
The IRS defines gambling winnings as including, but not limited to money or items gained by:
*Horse track betting
*Dog track betting
*Off-track betting
*Casino games
*Poker tournaments
*Lotteries
*Raffles
*Sweepstakes
*And, even Bingo
Federal and local state (Maryland and Virginia) tax regulations require gambling winners to report their winnings on their tax returns.
What’s the Tax Rate on Gambling Winnings?
The IRS considers gambling winnings taxable. If you win a large sum ($5,000+ or 300 times the amount bet), the gambling establishment will generally deduct 25% from your winnings at the time of payout.
When gambling establishments deduct taxes from large winners, they provide the IRS Form W-2G to the winners and to the IRS. This form details the winnings and the deduction.
If you win at casino games, Bingo or Keno, your winnings are not typically subject to withholding. However, your winnings could be subject to underpayment penalties if you do not pay estimated taxes on time.
If you win a large item (such as a car or a trip), you are responsible for paying the fair market value of the prize.
Maryland Taxes on Gambling Winners
If you win $500+ at the Preakness or at any Maryland-based gambling or gaming establishment, you will owe taxes. Maryland’s gambling taxes apply to residents and non-residents.
If you win big ($5,000+), the gambling establishment will automatically withhold the taxes from your payout check.
Maryland requires all winners of more than $500 to file Maryland Form 502D within 60 days of the time you receive the prize money.
Virginia also Taxes Gambling Winnings
If you live in Virginia, travel to the Preakness, and win big, you will also owe Virginia taxes. Virginia taxes all gambling winnings over $600 at the state’s tax rate. You will owe Virginia taxes on your winnings even if you also paid taxes to Maryland. Yes, that is double taxation.
What About Gambling Losses?
You will not be able to deduct losses directly from the winnings at the time of payout. If you have gambling losses, you can deduct those loses as a miscellaneous deduction on line 28 of Schedule A, Form 1040. You can only deduct gambling losses if you itemize your deductions. You cannot deduct losses greater than your winnings.
Records You Should Keep
If you gamble often (but not professionally), you should keep records on your gambling winnings and losses in a log. You should record details such as:
*Date/description/location of the event
*Amount bet/ amount won
*Names of others with you at the time of the event
You should also keep any relevant documents (tickets, payout slips, and relevant forms, such as Form W-2G). You will need to document winnings and losses in order to deduct your losses on your income tax.
Professional gamblers have more expenses that are allowable. The IRS defines a professional gambler as someone who gambles on a regular and continuous basis.

As with amateur gamblers, the pros cannot deduct expenses greater than their winnings.

The payer is required to send Form W2G only if the winner reaches the following thresholds:

Michelle Malloy, Esq. at AUA Capital Management, LLC in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, commented:
“Pennsylvania takes the position that they are entitled to tax a portion of your worldwide income based on certain income items (wages, interests, dividends, capital gains, gambling winnings, lottery winnings, etc).”What if I don’t receive a Form W2-G?
If you did not receive Form W-2G, your winnings are still considered taxable income and should be reported. A payer is required to issue you a Form W-2G if you receive certain gambling winnings or have any gambling winnings subject to federal income tax withholding.
According to Malloy:
“You are required to report all gambling winnings for federal and Pennsylvania taxes. If you hit a certain threshold they (the casino) will withhold money. In the instance where a casino doesn’t do their job and and fails to send you a W2-G you are still required to report your winnings, or you run the risk of underreporting your taxable income for the year.”Do I have to pay taxes if a group of people win the lottery?
What happens when a group of coworkers chip in on a lottery ticket that wins? What about you and a friend who put money on a long-shot team to win the championship?
Meet Form 5754 (PDF). Payers use this form to prepare Form W-2G when the person receiving gambling winnings subject to reporting or withholding is not the actual winner or is a member of a group of two or more people sharing the winnings.
Don’t send Form 5754 to the IRS. Keep a copy for your records and return the form to the payer (usually the casino) for preparation of Form W-2G for each person listed as winners.Are there any deductions available for taxes related to gambling?
Gambling losses can be deducted. However, they must be itemized on line 28 of Schedule A, Form 1040.
Also, you cannot deduct more than your winnings.
Expenses related to any gambling or lottery activities, (like your dinner at the steakhouse, celebratory drinks from the bar, or cost of hotel room) cannot be deducted.
If you are going to deduct gambling losses, keep these records:
*The date and type of each wager
*The name and location of the bet
*The amount won or lost
*Wagering tickets
*Canceled checks
*Credit card records
When using a players club/members card, casinos can track players’ spend. Therefore, you can request a win/loss report that will give you a fairly good sense of your activity in a casino. Online casino players can request the same report and most sites should be able to provide it without issue.Do You Have To Pay State Taxes On Gambling Winnings In Oklahoma City
“A lot of people may under-report,” explained Malloy. “They might win $10,000 but have $3,000 of expenses so they think they are just going to report $7,000. That can be an issue, as Pennsylvania does not allow a deduction for expenses. If you win a lot of money in June, for example, you might want to make an estimated tax payment [due Sept. 15 and Jan. 15] so you don’t have an underpayment penalty the following April.”How to claim gambling winnings and/or losses
Pennsylvania provides a helpful resource to determine how to claim gambling winnings and/or losses.
There is a prompt where you can start a ten-minute interview.
Be sure to have the following information ready:
*Your and your spouse’s filing status
*Amount of your gambling winnings and losses
*Any information provided to you on a Form W-2GTaxes on multistate lotteries
The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue considers multi-state lottery prizes, like those from Powerball and Mega Millions, awarded on tickets purchased through a licensed Pennsylvania state lottery ticket vendor, a prize by the Pennsylvania Lottery.
“Such prizes are considered Pennsylvania source income and both residents and nonresidents are subject to tax on such income if the prize is a cash prize. Multistate lottery prizes awarded on tickets purchased through a vendor in another state lottery are considered prizes awarded by that state lottery. Such prizes are not considered Pennsylvania source income and only residents are taxed on such income regardless of whether the prize is a cash or noncash prize.”
Due to a 2016 law change, any cash prize won from a Powerball of Mega Millions ticket in any state is taxable for state purposes, in addition to federal taxes.What happens if you win a few thousand dollars on a winning PA lottery ticket?
Lottery winnings are included in taxable income. Pennsylvania Lottery winners of an individual prize valued at more than $600 will receive a Form W2-G by mail.
If your spouse also wins, they must report their winnings separately.
“For a significant windfall, like over $5 million, it definitely makes sense to talk to an attorney or accountant to determine if they should take a lump sum payout or annuity. They may also need to think about estate tax planning, financial planning and/or asset protection planning for their windfall,” said Malloy.Sports betting winnings and taxes
Sports betting winnings are taxable income.
The IRS states:
“Gambling winnings are fully taxable and you must report the income on your tax return. Gambling income includes but isn’t limited to winnings from lotteries, raffles, horse races, and casinos. It includes cash winnings and the fair market value of prizes, such as cars and trips.”
Even though sports betting isn’t specifically listed, it falls under the umbrella of “gambling winnings.”
Wherever your sports betting win occurred – at the OTB, the casino, on a sports betting app – they payer should send Form W-2G.
Sports betting losses might also be used as deductions if you itemize your deductions and keep a detailed record of wins and losses.
Based on your tax bracket, sports bettors in Pennsylvania could owe up to 35 % of winnings to the federal government in addition to the 3.07 % Pennsylvania taxes net gambling winnings.Online gambling and taxes
Sports betting apps and online casinos provide unmatched convenience. You may also enjoy the anonymity of playing behind a screen name instead of in person.
