W-2G Statement
How will I get my W-2G or win/loss statement for 2022?
TwinSpires will send you a statement using the details on your account if you trigger the qualifying criteria set out below:
When will TwinSpires generate a W-2G and report it to the IRS?
The reporting threshold for sports wagering and table games is 300-to-1 Odds and a $600 payout.
The reporting threshold for slots and video poker is $1,200.
When is there automatic withholding?
The reporting threshold for sports wagering is 300-to-1 Odds and a $5,000 payout.
Am I still responsible for paying income tax on gambling winners?
You should consult with a tax professional regarding your tax questions. Just because your bets do not trigger a W-2G and IRS report by TwinSpires DOES NOT mean you're not responsible for paying taxes on certain winnings.
If you need to update your address, please contact Player Services immediately.
