Not true, maybe it is written that way, but for the past 2 years we have paid state taxes in both WV (residence) and MD (lottery winnings).
I called the WV tax number the first time I could not figure out how to do the paper work to only pay taxes in MD for the winnings. I did not get an answer and the way the worksheet is written, taxes needed to be paid in both states.
The amount was fairly small but the principle is wrong. If you know how to legally file in both states and pay taxes only in the state you bought the ticket I would really love to hear what I missed.
