If you claimed an Iowa Lottery prize of more than $600 in calendar year 2024, the form you’ll need as you file your income taxes is being processed for mailing.
The document most winners will receive is the W-2G form. It lists the total prize amount won along with any federal and state withholdings applied to the prize. (Lottery winners who aren’t U.S. citizens receive a document called Form 1042S.)
If you claimed multiple Iowa Lottery prizes of more than $600 in 2024, you’ll get multiple forms from us, one for each prize claimed.
The deadline for all W-2G forms to be in the mail is this Friday (Jan. 31). We’re processing the forms now! Depending on the delivery time, you should receive your form in early February.
If you think you should get a tax form from us for winnings in calendar year 2024 and you've moved since you claimed your prize, please let us know your new address as soon as possible. If we don’t get that update, your tax form will be sent to the address provided when you claimed your prize.
You can call the Iowa Lottery at 515-725-7900 or email us at [email protected] if you have questions. Be sure to include your name, old address, new address, and telephone number in case we need to contact you.
Thank you again for playing the Iowa Lottery. And congrats to all our winners!
