*New York State Tax On Gambling Winnings
*States That Tax Gambling WinningsLottery and Gambling Winnings
Winning the Lottery or scoring on a sports wager can change your life in profound ways. Congratulations on your lucky break!
*New York’s top state tax rate is 8.82% as of 2020, but then you’ll have to add another percentage for the local tax. That works out to a hefty 12.7% of your winnings. Your tax bill would come out to almost $127,000 on $1 million in winnings, and about $12.7 million if you won a $100 million lottery.
*Mandatory Withholding Tax on Certain Gambling Winnings General Chapter 61 of the Laws of 1989 amended the Tax Law and the Administrative Code of the City of New York to require withholding of New York State, City of New York and City of Yonkers personal income taxes on certain gambling winnings.
*Mandatory Withholding Tax on Certain Gambling Winnings General Chapter 61 of the Laws of 1989 amended the Tax Law and the Administrative Code of the City of New York to require withholding of New York State, City of New York and City of Yonkers personal income taxes on certain gambling winnings.
*Deductions from losses that exceed your winnings still are not allowed. Supreme Court ruled in 1987 in the case of Commissioner vs. Groetzinger that deductions for losses cannot exceed the income from winnings. If you regularly pursue gambling with the intention of making a profit, then it’s effectively your day-to-day job.
Gambling income plus your job income (and any other income) equals your total income. Fortunately, you do not necessarily have to pay taxes on all your winnings. Instead, if you itemize your deductions, you can claim your losses up to the amount of your winnings.Note, under the new tax reform law, the gambling loss limitation was modified.
Just remember that your good fortune includes a responsibility to pay taxes and fees on those winnings.
Gambling Winnings: In 2018, Governor Phil Murphy signed a law that authorized legal sports betting in New Jersey. The law (A4111) allows people, age 21 and over, to place sports bets over the internet or in person at New Jersey’s casinos, racetracks, and former racetracks. Sports betting is now among the many forms of gambling winnings that are subject to the New Jersey Gross Income Tax, including legalized gambling (sports betting, casino, racetrack, etc.) and illegal gambling.
Lottery: New Jersey Lottery winnings from prize amounts exceeding $10,000 became subject to the Gross Income Tax in January 2009.Withholding Rate from Gambling Winnings New Jersey Income Tax is withheld at an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the payout for both New Jersey residents and nonresidents (N.J.S.A. 54A:5.1(g)).
Withholding Rate from Lottery Winnings The rate is determined by the amount of the payout. If a prize is taxable (i.e., over $10,000), the entire amount of the payout is subject to withholding, not just the amount in excess of $10,000. The withholding rates for gambling winnings paid by the New Jersey Lottery are as follows:
*5% for Lottery payouts between $10,001 and $500,000;
*8% for Lottery payouts over $500,000; and
*8% for Lottery payouts over $10,000, if the claimant does not provide a valid Taxpayer Identification Number. New Jersey Income Tax withholding is based on the total amount of the prize won. For example, if two people win a New Jersey Lottery prize of $14,000 and split the proceeds equally, $7,000 of income is taxable to each person and is subject to the 5% withholding rate. Both taxpayers would be subject to the 5% withholding because the total amount of the prize exceeded $10,000.
Companies that obtain the right to Lottery payments from the winner and receive Lottery payments are also subject to New Jersey withholdings. Each company is required to file for a refund of the tax withheld, if applicable. Lottery
New Jersey Lottery winnings from prize amounts exceeding $10,000 are taxable. The individual prize amount is the determining factor of taxability, not the total amount of Lottery winnings during the year. New York State Tax On Gambling Winnings
*For example, if a person won the New Jersey Lottery twice in the same year, and the winning prize amounts were $5,000 and $6,000, these winnings would not be subject to New Jersey Gross Income Tax. However, if that person won the Lottery once and received a prize of $11,000, the winnings would be taxable.
*This standard for taxability applies to both residents and nonresidents.
*The New Jersey Lottery permits donating, splitting, and assigning Lottery proceeds to someone else or to a charity. If you choose to donate, split, or assign your Lottery winnings, in whole or in part, the value is taxable to the recipient in the same way as it is for federal income tax purposes. Gambling and Lottery
Making Estimated Payments If you will not have enough withholdings to cover your New Jersey Income Tax liability, you must make estimated payments to avoid interest and penalties. For more information on estimated payments, see GIT-8, Estimating Income Taxes.
Out-of-State Sales: Out-of-state lottery winnings are taxable for New Jersey Gross Income Tax purposes regardless of the amount.
Gambling winnings from a New Jersey location are taxable to nonresidents. Gambling includes the activities of sports betting and placing bets at casinos and racetracks.
Calculating Taxable Income You may use your gambling losses to offset gambling winnings from the same year as long as they do not exceed your total winnings. If your losses were greater than your winnings, you cannot report the negative figure on your New Jersey tax return. You must claim zero income for net gambling winnings. For more information, see TB-20(R), Gambling Winnings or Losses.
You may be required to substantiate gambling losses used to offset winnings reported on your New Jersey tax return. Evidence of losses can include your losing tickets, a daily log or journal of wins and losses, canceled checks, notes, etc. You are not required to provide a detailed rider of gambling winnings and losses with your New Jersey tax return. However, if you report gambling winnings (net of losses) on your New Jersey return, you must attach a supporting statement indicating your total winnings and losses.
Reporting Taxable Winnings Include taxable New Jersey Lottery and gambling winnings in the category of “net gambling winnings” on your New Jersey Gross Income Tax return.
It’s been a while since I’ve listed out the bad states for gamblers. Here’s an updated list. Make sure you read the notes because while all of these states have tax systems that are problematic for gamblers, some impact amateurs while others impact professionals. Note that I do not cover the laws that impact gambling here (such as Washington State’s law that makes online gambling a Class C felony).
Connecticut [1]Hawaii [2]Illinois [1]Indiana [1]Massachusetts [1]Michigan [1]Minnesota [3]Mississippi [4]New York [5]Ohio [6]Washington [7]West Virginia [1]Wisconsin [1]States That Tax Gambling Winnings
NOTES:
1. CT, IL, IN, MA, MI, WV, and WI do not allow gambling losses as an itemized deduction. These states’ income taxes are written so that taxpayers pay based (generally) on their federal Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). AGI includes gambling winnings but does not include gambling losses. Thus, a taxpayer who has (say) $100,000 of gambling winnings and $100,000 of gambling losses will owe state income tax on the phantom gambling winnings. (Michigan does exempt the first $300 of gambling winnings from state income tax.)
2. Hawaii has an excise tax (the General Excise and Use Tax) that’s thought of as a sales tax. It is, but it is also a tax on various professions. A professional gambler is subject to this 4% tax (an amateur gambler is not).
3. Minnesota’s state Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) negatively impacts amateur gamblers. Because of the design of the Minnesota AMT, amateur gamblers with significant losses effectively cannot deduct those losses.
4. Mississippi only allows Mississippi gambling losses as an itemized deduction.
5. New York has a limitation on itemized deductions. If your AGI is over $500,000, you lose 50% of your itemized deductions (including gambling losses). You begin to lose itemized deductions at an AGI of $100,000.
6. Ohio currently does not allow gambling losses as an itemized deduction. However, effective January 1, 2013, gambling losses will be allowed as a deduction on state income tax returns. Unfortunately, those gambling losses will not be deductible on city or school district income tax returns, so Ohio will remain a bad state for amateur gamblers.
7. Washington state has no state income tax. However, the state does have a Business & Occupations Tax (B&O Tax). The B&O Tax has not been applied toward professional gamblers, but my reading of the law says that it could be at any time.
