Retirement tax questions

Please clarify. I'm not sure what you mean by " I had won a bunch of amounts over $1200 but under $5000 each. Is this right?"

  • You need to report the total amount won and you're able to enter losses to the extent of your winnings when you itemize. 

Yes, it makes a income tax difference if you itemize and report your gambling losses.
