How much you pay ultimately depends on your own tax situation and tax rate. There is no specific rate or category for income from types of gambling.
The withholding (like from a payroll, as an estimate of the tax) required at the casino is normally a minimum of 20%, but can depend again on your situation too. It is NOT the amount you pay...just a payment in advance to assure the amount you owe is paid.
Lottery and Gambling winnings are taxed like any other income.
That amount, or percent, of course changes with everyones personal situation, other income, expenses, deductions, exemptions, STATE (and state income tax is a deduction to Federal taxable income, so that changes many things), dependents, etc.
It is fair to say that 2 people, winning the same lottery would normally pay different amount of taxes.
Proveable losses are deductible against winning, so keep those losing lottery tickets!
Many people have tried to claim the winnings as Capital in nature, for the lower tax rate. The courts have denied that in each case.
If you are a professional gambler, the tax handling may change, as it is income from self employment...there are both good and bad aspects to this.
Usually 30% Federal Tax is taken out. Additional tax may be taken out per state. $309,000 Federal in the case of $1,030,000 leaving you with $721,000
You will ultimately pay tax on it just like any other income...although gambling losses are deductible against gambling winnings. That amount depends on your own personal circumstances.
If i won 500 million in the lottery how many taxes will be taken
42000
61-63 million ... Roughly federal and state taxes would come out to take around half... You typically take alittle more than half the winnings if you choose "lump sum" option
About 3.5 million.
500 million dollars
$500,000
500,000
Around 5 million U.S. dollars!
i am single with four children. how much would the taxes be on 10 million dollars?
100.000
Multiply that by 6% or 0.06. It would be $ 30,000,000.
hi, i would like to know how much would it cost for a franchise of lotto. can you please give me some information regarding this business and how can I enter into this kind of business, thank you so much mylene
Find out what the State & Federal Taxes are for your state and deduct the totals from your winnings. I'm sure the lotto officials would be glad to assist you with this or you could hire a financial consultant / accountant with that much money you can afford to hire a trusting professional to help you. If not investigate and do the math just make sure you pay it. The wonderful win, can be disastrous if not handled correctly.
600 thousand
