How do you claim gambling winnings if you don’t receive a 1040 form?
I could figure out a rough estimate myself but if I don’t receive a form from the business I used for sport betting how do I know the IRS was even sent one.

IRS Topic 419
Gambling Winnings A payer is required to issue you a Form W-2G, Certain Gambling Winnings if you receive certain gambling winnings or have any gambling winnings subject to federal income tax withholding. You must report all gambling winnings as "Other Income" on Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR (use Schedule 1 (Form 1040) PDF), including winnings that aren't reported on a Form W-2G PDF. When you have gambling winnings, you may be required to pay an estimated tax on that additional income. For information on withholding on gambling winnings, refer to Publication 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax.
Gambling Losses You may deduct gambling losses only if you itemize your deductions on Schedule A (Form 1040) and kept a record of your winnings and losses. The amount of losses you deduct can't be more than the amount of gambling income you reported on your return. Claim your gambling losses up to the amount of winnings, as "Other Itemized Deductions."
Recordkeeping To deduct your losses, you must keep an accurate diary or similar record of your gambling winnings and losses and be able to provide receipts, tickets, statements, or other records that show the amount of both your winnings and losses. Refer to Publication 529, Miscellaneous Deductions for more information.

How do taxes work for online sports betting?
Let me just start this off by saying that I've only needed to file taxes once before, and did so with a lot of help. In other words - I'm a bit clueless. So, for the past few months I've been using sports gambling apps - Draftkings, Fanduel, etc.
When I research how all of this is taxed, I read that if your winnings are above $600, Draftkings or Fanduel will send you the proper tax documentation in the mail. This is the part where I have many questions, such as:
- How does it work if I win, say $400 on Fanduel and $400 on Draftkings? Will they each send me the proper documents or will I need to figure it out on my own?
- Is it considered income the moment I win a bet, or the moment I withdraw the money(For example, if I win $800 but only withdraw $300 from my Draftkings account), would that be $300 or $800 in income that I'd need to report?
I also want to note that I do not need to file taxes for any other reason than the gambling winnings this year. If anyone is aware of filing for gambling winnings, is it difficult?

Do You Have to Pay Taxes on Slot Machine Winnings?
We all love to read stories about big wins and imagine ourselves in the shoes of those winners. But, have you ever thought about what happens at that very moment after successfully beating the slot machine? Usually, the slot machine locks up and, in most cases, you hear the music and see the flashing lights on top of the machine. But one of the first questions every player asks is whether they have to pay taxes on casino winnings? Well, you’re about to find out!
Taxes on Slot Machine Winnings in USA
In the USA, when a lucky player hits a jackpot, there’s the option of receiving the winnings in cash or check. In case it’s a large sum, it’s usually paid by check. However, the IRS only obliges the casinos to report winnings that are larger than $1,200.
Of course, all winners are obliged to show a proper identification— a valid ID or passport. When the casino checks for your identification they also look at your age to make sure you are officially and legally old enough to play. As the minimum legal age for gambling varies from state to state, be sure to check it out before you decide to play.
Do I Have to Report All Winnings?
All gambling winnings received from slot machines are subject to federal taxes, and both cash and non-cash winnings (like a car or a vacation) are fully taxable. Apart from slot machines, the same applies to winnings from lottery, bingo, keno, poker or other games of chance. So, if the amount won on a slot machine is higher than $1200, the casino is required to report it. In other words, all your gambling winnings
have to be reported on your tax return as "other income" on Schedule 1 (Form 1040), line 8.
Slot Machine Winnings in W-2G Form
In case it happens to you and you snag that big win (which we hope one day you will), it’s useful to know that casino or other payer must give you a W-2G Form, listing your
name, address and Social Security number. So, if the winnings are reported through a W-2G Form, federal taxes will be withheld at a rate of 25%.
If, however, you didn’t provide your Social Security number (or your Tax Identification Number), in that case the withholding will be 28%. Either way, a copy of your Form W-2G should be issued, showing the amount you won alongside the amount of tax withheld. One copy needs to go to the IRS, as well.
Aside from slot winnings, Form W-2G is issued to winners of the following types of gambling activities like:
- bingo (for players who win $1,200 or more),
- keno (for at least $1,500 worth wins)
- poker tournament players (for the $5,000 win or more).
- a horse track (if the winnings are 300x your bet)
However, not all gambling winnings are subject to IRS Form W2-G. For instance, W2-G forms are not required for winnings from table games like blackjack, baccarat, and roulette, whatever the amount. You’d still have to report your winnings to the IRS, it’s just you won’t need to do it through W-2G Form.
Are My Slot Losses Deductible?
The good news is that
you can deduct your slot losses (line 28 of Schedule A, Form 1040), while the bad news is gambling losses are deductible only up to the amount of your wins. In other words, you can use your losses to compensate for your winnings. So, let’s say you won $200 on one bet, but you lost $400 on one or a few others, you can only deduct the first $200 of losses. Meaning if you didn’t win anything for a year, you won’t be able to deduct any of your gambling losses.
In order to prove your losses, you need to keep good records and have suitable documents. So, whenever you lose, keep those losing tickets, cancelled checks and credit slips. Your documentation must include the
amount you won or lost, a date and time, type of wager, type of your gambling activity, name of each casino/address of each casino you visited and the
location of their gambling business. You may as well list the people who were with you.
Do State and Local Taxes Apply Separately?
Yes, you are required to pay your state or local taxes on your gambling winnings. In case you travel to another state, and snag some huge winning combo there, that other state would want to tax your winnings too. But don’t worry, you won't be taxed twice, as the state where you reside needs to give you a tax credit for the taxes you pay to that other state.
Keep in mind though that some states like Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Ohio don't allow gambling losses.
Online Slot Taxes
Whether you usually spin the reels of your favourite casino games in land-based casinos in the US, overseas casinos, or online casinos, all income for the citizens of the US is taxable. As a US citizen, you are required to send Form W2G for all winnings from a slot machine (not reduced by the wager) that equals to or is more than $1,200.
Taxes on Slot Machine Winnings in UK
As a resident of the United Kingdom, your gambling winnings won’t be taxed. Unlike the USA mentioned above, you’ll be allowed to keep whatever it is that you have won and earned in Britain, even in case you are a poker pro. Then again, you won’t be able to deduct any losses you might collect.
It doesn’t really matter if you win £5 or £5 million playing online slots, your winnings will be tax-free as long as you reside anywhere in the UK, be that in England, Wales, Northern Ireland or Scotland.
Taxes on Slot Machine Winnings in Canada
If you are a recreational player who lives in Canada, we have good news for you. When it comes to gambling, you don't have to pay taxes as your winnings are totally tax free. According to laws in Canada, gambling activities don’t fall under the category of constant source of income, therefore your winnings will not be taxed.
Canadians don't even pay taxes on their lottery winnings. The only exception here are professional gamblers who make a living from betting and are, therefore, obliged to pay taxes. Keep in mind though, this is the current situation - laws in Canada change frequently, which may also include tax laws.
Taxes on Slot Machine Winnings in Australia
In case you reside in Australia and like to visit casinos from time to time, you’ll be happy to find out that your winnings in Australia will not taxed and here are 3 core reasons for that:
- Gambling is not treated a profession (it's treated as a hobby)
- The government doesn’t see profits from gambling activities as income, but as a result of good luck
- The Australian government taxes casino operators and lottery organisers instead.
Of course, taxation varies from state to state.
Taxes on Slot Machine Winnings in New Zealand
Unlike in Australia, where even professional players can claim they are recreational, in New Zealand slot machine winnings (and any other winnings from casino games) are considered taxable income, in case the player has little income from other resources.
But, apart from professional gambling, it is
very unusual for winnings to be taxed in New Zealand. Most often, gambling is considered recreational and not income, so players can enjoy their gameplay as they do not have to pay taxes on their winnings.

Will IRS need proof of gambling winnings/1040 line 8?
This year's my first year gambling and I've made about $50,000 so far (I use an offshore online sportsbook) and am wondering how to file taxes for next year.
Let's say I won $100,000 gross and lost $50,000 gross, leaving me at $50,000 net. Would the IRS follow-up with the sportsbook and/or mandate that I turn in evidence of said winnings/losings after reporting them on line 8 of form 1040?

Here's the new Form 1040 for tax year 2018.
From IRS.gov For Tax Year 2018, you will no longer use Form 1040A or Form 1040EZ, but instead will use the redesigned Form 1040. Many people will only need to file Form 1040 and no schedules.
This is the "postcard size" form you may have heard of:
Form 1040, and the
instructions. The return is two half-pages, and the signature section is the bottom of the first page. Form(s) W-2 are now attached on the left margin of page two.
However, if your return is more complicated (for example you claim certain deductions or credits, or owe additional taxes) you will need to complete one or more of the new Form 1040 Schedules. Below is a general guide to what Schedule(s) you will need to file, based on your circumstances. See the instructions for the Schedules for more information.
Schedule 1: If you have additional income, such as capital gains, unemployment compensation, prize or award money, gambling winnings.
If you Have certain deductions to claim, such as student loan interest deduction, self-employment tax, educator expenses.
Schedule 2: If you owe AMT or need to make an excess advance premium tax credit repayment (calculated on Form 8962).
Schedule 3: If you can claim a nonrefundable credit other than the child tax credit or the credit for other dependents, such as the foreign tax credit, education credits, general business credit.
Schedule 4: If you owe other taxes, such as self-employment tax, household employment taxes, additional tax on IRAs or other qualified retirement plans and tax-favored accounts.
Schedule 5: If you can claim a refundable credit other than the earned income credit, American opportunity credit, or additional child tax credit. If you have other payments, such as an amount paid with a request for an extension to file or excess social security tax withheld.
Schedule 6: If you have a foreign address, or a third party designee other than your paid preparer.
Here's an example:
A couple files a married filing joint return with no children, where one spouse works for wages and the other spouse is self employed. They claim the standard deduction, and the self employed spouse made estimated tax payments, because it's a pay-as-you-earn system.
This couple will file the Form 1040, Schedule 1 (for the self employment income and the self employment tax deduction), Schedule 4 (for the self employment tax), and Schedule 5 (to claim the estimated tax payments). These new Schedules are
in addition to the Schedules C and SE the spouse would need to compute the business profit and self employment tax. If the Taxpayer want's their mom to be able to contact IRS on their behalf, they could list mom as the third party designee, and add Schedule 6.
If they are filing this return by mail, they must remember to sign the return on page one and attach the W-2 on page 2 of the 1040. Then they attach Schedules 1, 4, 5, and 6, and then Schedules C and SE. Each IRS supporting form or schedule has a sequence number in the upper-right corner. These are supposed to be attached in the appropriate sequence number order.
Individuals who filed their federal tax return electronically last year may not notice any changes, as the tax return preparation software will automatically use their answers to the tax questions to complete the Form 1040 and any needed schedules.
If you are electronically filing your return, these mechanical changes should be invisible to you. Carefully review the finished product and, as always, when you are done preparing and filing your return, make digital and physical copies for your records.
Tl;Dr: Here's the new and improved tax return, and new schedules, for 2018. Forms 1040A and 1040EZ won't be used this filing season. I just want to say good luck. We're all counting on you.

Gambling taxes
I live in a state that allows online gambling on sites like pokerstars and playsugarhouse and I have a question about taxes on winnings and deductions for losses. Currently for my yearly summary for this calendar year my winnings are $20,992.47 and losses at -$22,265.90. I play slot machines and sometimes I win, most of the time I lose but the transactions of slot machines goes up and down and can keep you playing if you win and lose multiple times in a row. My entire betting history is over 800 pages. Do I have to submit all of those pages to the IRS to qualify for tax deductions? Hypothetically if I cannot get those tax deductions, will I be taxed on my cumulative calendar year wins and my losses not considered? or when I submit the Schedule A Form 1040 will I just have to declare my losses in total for the 2020 year? Very confused on how online gambling is being taxes and I tried going to the IRS website to try and understand it but goddamn its so confusing.

My approach to Bitcoin won by gambling...Did I do it right? Looking for advice
Wanted to run my case by another set of eyes for some advice on how to best proceed going forward.
Long story short, I bought a small amount of bitcoin back in mid 2016 and grew it to a much larger sum (in terms of raw bitcoin, I accrued nearly 100x the amount of coins I bought in the first place) gambling throughout 2017 on various websites.
I actually paid an accountant I found via a bitcoin tax site to do my taxes for the year of 2017, and talked things through with him. Per his advice, I ended up punching everything into
Bitcoin.tax and counted every DEPOSIT into my wallet (ie a withdrawal from a gambling site) and filed it under the "income" tab, and every WITHDRAWAL from my wallet (ie a deposit into a gambling site) and filed it as "spending." We then subtracted all spending from income and came up with a net sum that was filed on my 2017 return under "other income" on my 1040 (and he actually called it gambling winnings on my form). I believe I filed as LIFO.
For all intents and purposes, I stopped gambling in 2018, and at this point in 2019, I have just been selling bitcoin here and there in small amounts. TBH, I'm looking to just liquidate a larger chunk of it now to avoid the headache and pay off some of my wife's student loans.
In retrospect, I feel like I may have overpaid massively but my head hurts the more I think about it. My salary from work was $50k, then I ended up with $130k as "income" from the bitcoin and had to pay $50k in taxes that year. Curious for some input on the matter, especially for any others who have gambled for bitcoin and declared it on their taxes (this may be a very narrow Venn diagram...).
I gambled a little bit into the beginning of 2018 before I quit for good, but I actually didn't declare it on my taxes that year. Part of the reason I ask the above is whether I should go back and re-file taxes to reflect any crypto for the year, so I can make sure I do it properly if I do send in an amended return.
I know this is a tricky and nuanced situation, so please let me know if there's any other information I can provide to make things clear.

Tax Advice
Last year I won a few thousand dollars playing fantasy sports. Do I still have to report those winnings if my total income still fall under the 10k mark? Also how do I go about reporting gambling winnings and losses? form 1040 is confusing. thanks again.

1040 Schedule 1 Question?
Trying to file taxes but it gives me the message: "You have Schedule 1, Additional Income and Adjustments to Income, and that's just one of the reasons the IRS requires you to file Form 1040." And tells me to pay to upgrade off the free edition to be able to access the 1040 and be able to file.
I don't understand what this is. Spouse and I did not have additional income, have not received any 1040 form. Our taxes are the same as last year except I did change jobs on the later part of the year. When googling it says the form is for capital gains, unemployment compensation, prizes or awards, gambling winnings, student loan interest deductions, self-employment taxes, or educator expenses... which we didn't have. Can anyone explain?

Tax Talk: IRS gambles on honesty of taxpayers
This is an automatic summary,
original reduced by 65%.
If my team wins the Super Bowl today, I'll win over $800. The obvious question - and I think I know the answer - is it taxable? But what I'm really wondering is how would the IRS know if I won or not?
Short answer to question one: Yes, your winnings would be taxable, along with any other gambling winnings you might have during the year.
Longer answer to question two: As you suggest, it's very unlikely that the IRS would ever know about Super Bowl pools, NCAA basketball pools, casual bets between friends, or many other cash transactions not supported by an "Official" document.
Our tax law depends on a system of voluntary compliance, and rises or falls based on the support of "We the taxpayers." If Congress would let it, the IRS could probably increase its transaction monitoring in such a way that unreported income would be reduced significantly.
For the past few years, the IRS has added a measurable benefit for taxpayers based on school costs, namely, the tuition and fees deduction paid foby an "Eligible student" attending an accredited college or university.
For a St. Joseph County taxpayer in the 25 percent federal income tax bracket, the potential tax reduction on the Form 1040A or Form 1040 would be $1,000, and another $202 is saved on the Form IT-40.

gambling winnings form 1040 video
Gambling winnings flow to line 21 of Form 1040 as Other Income. Gambling losses flow to Schedule A line 28. Gambling losses are only allowed to the extent of winnings. If the entry in A-4 box 108 exceeds the entry in IRS W-2G box 51, the lower number is used on Schedule A. Gambling winnings are reported as Other Income on Schedule 1 (Form 1040) Line 8. While you may be able to deduct your gambling losses, gambling winnings are not directly offset by gambling losses in your tax return. A payer is required to issue you a Form W-2G, Certain Gambling Winnings if you receive certain gambling winnings or have any gambling winnings subject to federal income tax withholding. You must report all gambling winnings as "Other Income" on Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR (use Schedule 1 (Form 1040) PDF ), including winnings that aren't reported on a Form W-2G PDF . It is the IRS that will receive this information on your Form 1040, he said. Both cash and the value of prizes are considered “other income” on your Form 1040. If you score big, you might even receive a Form W-2G reporting your winnings.
