| Are
lottery prizes taxable? |
| All USA state lottery
prizes are subject to a 3O% withholding tax when won by a non-US
citizen. However, if you are a non-U.S. citizen, the withholding tax on
your winnings may be refunded from the United States Internal Revenue
Service if your country has a tax treaty with the United States. |
If more than one person
wins the Jackpot, the prize is equally divided among the winners. All
other prizes, from US$175,000 down to US$2, are fixed prize amounts, and
are paid in full to each winner. |
