If you have already claimed the winnings, there is nothing you can do with that thought to reduce taxes. If not, you can form a partnership or other entity to claim the winnings. I recommend you consult with a CPA before you claim the winnings.
First, gee - I thought you all owned the ticket and were all the lottery winners! Otherwise, a fairly large amount of value in gifts can be given to children each year, by each parent. About 12.5K a year, to each kid, from each mom and dad - for 25K each...gift tax free. Next year same thing... And if that isn't big enough to do it, there are other ways it can easily be handled...but then your certainly dealing with enough $ that getting professional help with it, (and wills and living trusts, etc, etc.) makes a lot of sense.
In the year that you receive the lottery prize the distribution amount is added to all of your other gross worldwide income and taxed at your marginal tax rates on the 1040 federal income tax return from the 10% to the 35% maximum rate for the 2009 and 2010 tax year.
You cannot reduce the taxes but before you receive the lump sum amount you may be able to choose to receive the amount over a period of years and then have to pay the income taxes that would be due on the amounts that are received each year until you receive all of your winning amount.
Only if your winnings are less than 50% of your adjusted Gross Income. But, if you win a huge jackpot (one that is much larger than your regular income), you would only be able deduct ~50% of it by giving it away. So don't give it all away before checking with your tax advisor!
The State will not take your brother's lottery winnings, or the personal property he gives you from those winnings.
The penalty for not paying child support is very great. It ranges from driver's license suspension, to passport denial. Other penalties are income execution and lottery winnings interception.

Yes, then any winnings stay in the corporation as retained earnings after paying a smaller income tax than individuals
By using Arizona child support, the recipient of such payments has many means by which to halt delinquency from the paying parent. If the paying parent is delinquent, he or she may be denied a passport, their tax refunds or lottery winnings could be intercepted in lieu of payment, and government-issued licences may be suspended.
The funds collected by The Illinois Lottery are used for the LotteryÍ—‘_Í_‘‰s operating costs like paying its employees, paying the printing of lottery tickets, contributing to the State Education Funds and funding of State Capital Funds to name a few.
You have to tell the trustee about your windfall. Your never barred from paying your debts....everyone wants you to...you just didn't!
I would hope so
If you and your husband have been separated for over a year and he is not paying child support, you must consult a lawyer and have a custody agreement before taking the children out of state.
Although you are required to include sweepstakes wins on your tax return, paying taxes on those winnings will depend on your total income for the year. Those winnings can also put you into a higher tax bracket, which will cause a higher tax rate than in previous years.
You cannot be a SuperStar without paying.
