Assuming you are not a non-resident alien, there is no federal withholding on a prize of exactly $5000 unless you are subject to backup withholding. On a prize of $5000.01 or more, there would be withholding.
Georgia withholds at a rate of 6%. Several documents I found say this applies to prizes of "more than $5000." However, I looked up the actual Georgia code and it says "$5000 or more."
Whether they take any taxes out or not, you still have to declare the full amount on your tax return at the end of the year and pay taxes at that time.
In Florida, lottery winnings are subject to a 24% federal withholding tax for U.S. citizens and resident aliens for prizes above $5,000. Additionally, there may be state taxes on lottery winnings depending on the amount won and the winner's personal tax situation.
None. Florida doesn't have State Income taxes and the threshold for Federal Income taxes is more than $5000 as the Standard Deduction for a single person for 2014 is $6200.
