I play with the player's card, and I have lots of those winning tickets through the year, but I keep putting it back to the machine, and it makes me look so good, actually I lost almost all my money, sad and depressed 😔 seeking help through gambler group and I forgot to my annual statement is a loss. I feel like never play the slot machine again. I'm too depressed seeing all winning tickets but ending losing my money, and my head is not at the right place. Feel like living on the edge.

Jason I have W-2G Forms from 2 States how to I input State I am not a resident from which I have loss more that jackpots won??

@phxman7519 Год назад

How do you file taxes from sweep coin redemptions from places like Chumba Casino and Luckyland Casinos? Both Chumba and Luckyland do not provide W2G forms. I did have winnings from both sites and losses on what I've spent on gold coins (not real money) to obtain additional free sweep coins (actual money to gamble from in order to receive real cash redemptions). Technically, the winnings are considered as Sweepstake prizes, but at the same time it is considered gambling. So how do I file these cash redemptions? Would I also report it as other income to? Also I do have sweep coin losses from what I gambled off of.

@jeanbkletsgo7446 Год назад

Every jackpot I won like handout pay for w2g. I never asked to take taxes out. But when I saw my win/loss statment, it show that I won 21k but I've lost 28k. So I need to add 21K for income and deductions, is that correct?

@ramblinman8408 2 года назад

Jason, I have a question regarding how winnings are reported. When reporting your end of year winnings on the 1040 do you include your wagers in that number? I have seen some websites say that you do so, which doesn’t make much sense at all when it comes to sports betting. For example, if I wagered $1,100 and won $1,000 off of that wager would my winnings on the 1040 be $2,100 or $1,000? Thanks for the informative video.

@youngerthug2356 Год назад

I also would like to know this! I have seen on websites that you would report your winnings in full (in this scenario $2,100) but then you could deduct the initial wager ($1,100) in your itemized losses. This doesn't seem logical however... I would love to get your opinion on this @Jason D. Knott

@suzieheng3953 Год назад

Let say that throughout the year, I got those winning tickets for $150,000 added together, but I keep putting them back to the machine, and I play with my club card at the end of the statement year my lost $11,000.00 how do I deduct my losses? I actually lost lots of money, but those tickets make me looking. I am winning a lot. How do I deduct my losses?

@jerrymaushard3835 11 месяцев назад

The IRS has not thought through gambling winnings and loses clearly. Such as online gambling. This gets very tricky and usually the gambler gets the short end on the stick.

@PurpleOuchie 2 месяца назад

They know exactly what they're doing to make sure we get the short end.

@TanyafromVegas 2 года назад

Hello Jason, great video! Question: my losses are much greater than my winnings. My standard deduction is higher than it would be to itemize. I have my W-G's and my win/loss statement from the Casino. Are you saying we have to itemize in order to offset and not pay taxes?

@markciarlillo7823 4 месяца назад

Did you have to end up paying taxes for this?

@jeffd8765 2 года назад

In the video, you had W-2g $15,700 (wins) and $18,600 (losses). You stated you need to add other winnings and losses. I assume the $18,600 was a net loss. For conversation purposes, Lets say that the fictitious John gross losses were $118,600 and gross winning were $100,000 (which $15,700 was reported via W-2g) for a net loss $18,600 in your video. Question, what numbers do you fill in? Where do you put the extra $100,000 in wins and losses?

@jeffd8765 2 года назад

Also do you need to add every single win or loss or can you do it by session? For example, if you play the $1 slots for 8 hours and won $50, can you state your session was a $50 win or do you have to keep track of each win and loss and state $1,050 wins and $1,000 loss for a net of $50.

@JasonDKnott 2 года назад

Any additional gambling winnings that were not reported on a Form W-2G can be added to Schedule 1, Part 1, Line 8. On the new Form 1040 Schedule 1, there is a line item (8b) for gambling income. The losses are still reported on Schedule A as an itemized deduction.

@courtneybutts5152 10 месяцев назад

If the client had winnings of $10,000 and losses of $1,700 would schedule one and form1040 amounts be 8300? or would it just be 10,000 with the 1700 as a deduction or is the loss not important?

Question: I won a $1400 jackpot at 1130pm new years eve but I've lost wayyyyyyy more in 2023 can I use my atm debit withdrawals from the casinos as proof of my losses?

@kimberlywilliams3729 Год назад

Hello Jason, my question is if you win with your state online lottery games but never actually cash out the money just re-wager the winnings do you still calculate it the same way.

@maewebster9377 Год назад

that’s a great question because I hit a jackpot for 1345, but I was done to 40.00.... I had put in 100.00 to start so I’m never sure if I should claim that 60 as a loss

@jaymay5307 Год назад

My main question is figuring out what a loss is on the Win/ Loss statement. I have about 400K + in total winnings across 4 online casinos, but I wagered up to 500k . Do my WAGERS ( since they go over the amount returned) count as losses? Would I report the 400k as income and then 400k in losses? I have a net loss of 17 k between all of the apps, but to my understanding, that extra 17k goes beyond what I'm allowed to report since we can only report up to what we've won.

@the3onions 8 месяцев назад

@kd9183 2 года назад

How do I file these while also filing a 1099-k from PayPal for the same money but just processed/withdrawals from draft kings.

@JasonDKnott 2 года назад

If the amounts on Form 1099-K are related to gambling winnings and losses, then you can report them consistent with the procedures in this video. Gross gambling winnings are taxable, and you can deduct gambling losses if you itemize your tax deductions.

@amandaserrano5934 Год назад

Do you get money back for reporting your won losses??

@WheresKdot Год назад

This may seem like a stupid question. If I won 50k total for the year, but wagered 51k, I would be able to deduct the total 50k correct? Since I wagered more than I won that would be considered a loss correct?

@alexcolombu1025 3 месяца назад

Yes and you may also get a refund for how much taxes they took out of that 50k

Same problem already filled .then the tax form showed up in mail .and how to know my tax burden on 1000 .???? Help please

@mikepark1219 Месяц назад

Tax laws are so skewed that you can win a $1,200 jackpot which can put you in the next tax bracket and end up owing ~$32K more taxes than without the $1,200 jackpot. If anyone is near the higher limit of their tax bracket then they should not play slots. I got put into the next tax bracket but only a 2% increase resulting in ~$4K more tax than without my jackpot.

I have a quesitION .. I played at the table game. I won 1600 and it showed only WIN/LOSS statement online from the casino . The casino did not send me w2g at all. Do i need to report it ? i asked my friends and they said i dont need to bc they dont have my social. I am confusing

@reglara79 Год назад

I work at a casino and they only give you a w2 g when you win on slots or on tables if you win one of those pots where you put that extra bet to win the progressive if your first 2 cards are 21 suited or something like that. That 1600 you won wasn’t one off of one bet and if it was that means you had to bet 1600 to win 1600 so don’t worry about it.

How do I log a session at the casino if I start with $2000.00 entering casino, get a say $2000 jack pot w2g but loose that and $500 of my initial bankroll leaving with $1500.00, is it a net $2500 loss?

@keithrutledge5603 2 года назад

Love This Video...!!!!

@JasonDKnott 2 года назад

The gambling winnings and losses are reported separately. The IRS states that as a best practice you should have a ledger that shows how much was wagered, how much in proceeds was won or lost, the date of the wager, and the type of game played.

@mikeparker6322 11 месяцев назад

What if I win $100,000 in one year and have a W2G. So in essence I can deduct $100,000 and zero tax consequence for gambling win?

@maryalcantara9984 Год назад

Why you do not put the 18,600 of losses?

@heavenlover58 3 месяца назад

I played slot machine in DraftKings casino with my deposit $2.5 k won and lost and up and down and in my w2g my transaction was $63k won but didn’t I didn’t won anything and and reported my lost same 63 k but buy I have to pay tax almost 6 k for that ?

@luiscerda2132 2 года назад

I was trying to offset my 4K winnings. I asked for a win loss statement come the casino in which I lost juts as much as I won. But the person who prepared my taxes in California claims I had to be a home owner to claim loss for casino wins.

@JasonDKnott 2 года назад

That is not technically correct. Gambling losses are deducted as an itemized tax deduction, so you need to itemize your tax deductions (Schedule A) in order to use them. You don't have to be a homeowner with mortgage interest and real estate taxes in order to itemize tax deductions, you just have to have enough other types of itemized deductions to exceed the standard deduction (charitable contributions, state income taxes, medical expenses, etc.)

@juanaallen5885 3 месяца назад

How do you amend an amended return that didn't properly report the winnings. Is there such a thing to amend an amended return. My tax preparer file an amended return to add more winning and losses but did it wrong again and we got another letter from the IRS.

@JasonDKnott 3 месяца назад

Yes! If the amended return was incorrect, you can certainly file another amended return. It gets more complicated depending upon how much time has gone by since the original tax filing. The IRS has fairly strict rules on the statute of limitations with respect to amended returns.

@Cindy-vx6us 2 года назад

I won $49,000 in 2021. What can I use to prove my loses? Statements from the casinos? I pull cash out of the bank because I play slots. Proving cash is hard. I could pull the day if, the day or two before, or sometimes I have pulled from the casino kiosks! What do I need to prove my losses and does it get sent in to the IRS? Or do I just have it in order just in case I get audited? Also, I’m single and in California and I don’t usually file long form. Can I file long form just to claim my loses?

@JasonDKnott 2 года назад

Any gambling losses you claim on your tax return should be supported by written records, statements, receipts, etc. You don't need to provide this information to the IRS when you file your tax return, however, you should have it available in the event of an IRS audit and they want to see support for the losses.

@Cindy-vx6us 2 года назад

@@JasonDKnott I have another question. I am single and living in California. I had two jobs with an income that totaled about $56,000 combined and then I have gambling winnings that totaled almost $49,000 which puts me at about $105,000 of income for the year 2021. I don’t really have much deductions, I don’t own a home, I rent. It s my understanding though I must go long form to file my taxes.Is this correct? I have very little medical. I could maybe claim $300 for the year and the only other thing I think I would have would be my losses on the winnings. What do I do? I feel like with not much defections I’ll pay even more in taxes because I don’t even get the standard deduction that goes with the short form. What can I do? What do you suggest? Thanks again in advance. Your videos are good.

@vuthsuon209 2 года назад

do you gambling a lot and do you have membership cards at those casinos? If so you can print your win/loss statements. They track all the money going in and out.

@GFDthatsMe 5 месяцев назад

I won $7620 this year. Taxed on a $7010 win @ $2240. I lost $1510. Can i deduct my $1510 from my $7620 to get 24% of the $1510 i lost back from the $2240 i already paid? This is the only income i made on my total income this year. So im guessing i cant get any money back because i didnt lose $13k (more than standard duduction)

@JasonDKnott Год назад

If you have gambling losses from separate sessions, those losses are an itemized deduction on Schedule A. In order to claim those losses, you'll need to itemize your tax deductions. Many taxpayers simply claim in the standard deduction, so often times those gambling losses are not used

If you receive a Form W-2G with federal income taxes withheld in Box 4, you are able to claim those federal income taxes withheld on your Form 1040. It is similar to claiming federal taxes withheld on Form W-2 for your wages.
