I am showing $11,444 in gambling winnings, I like to itemize deductions- Where can I show my losses?

If you have not filed, here are the steps (desktop):

  • Open up your program if you have not done so
  • To the right upper corner, in the search box, type in “gambling losses” and Enter
  • Jump to "gambling losses"
  • Next screen, Did you win money or prizes from gambling or lotteries during 2018? select Yes
  • Follow prompts.  

Note that gambling losses can be deducted as an itemized deduction up to the total of reported gambling and prize winnings.  Since your gambling winnings are $11,444, you can deduct your losses up to $11,444.
