How old do you have to be to play the lottery in Washington?
You must be at least 18 years old to buy a lottery ticket in Washington, and retailers may ask for ID.
Can I remain anonymous if I win the lottery in Washington?
No. Winners' names are public records in Washington. You can claim through a trust or other legal entity, but the lottery warns that the documents forming that entity can be released under a public records request, which can reveal who won.
How much tax will I pay on lottery winnings in Washington?
Washington does not tax Washington Lottery prizes, so no state tax is withheld. If you live in another state, your home state may tax the prize. The federal government withholds 24% from prizes over $5,000. Withholding is only a prepayment: what you owe depends on your total income for the year, and most of a jackpot-sized prize is taxed at the top federal rate of 37%, so expect to owe more when you file. A tax professional can help you plan before you claim a large prize.
How long do I have to claim a lottery prize in Washington?
You have 180 days from the draw date to claim a draw-game prize in Washington, including Powerball and Mega Millions. Scratch-off tickets usually have their own deadline, often counted from the end of the game, so check the back of the ticket. Unclaimed prizes are forfeited. If you win a jackpot, ask the lottery how and when you choose between the cash option and the annuity, because the rules differ from state to state.
Where do Washington Lottery profits go?
Washington Lottery profits go mainly to education, the lottery's primary beneficiary since 2000. Prizes, retailer commissions and operating costs are paid first.
