DraftKings never sent me a 1099-MISC or W-2G even though my total winnings on stat sheet for past year shows over $600 minimum, what do I do in this situation?

To enter gambling winnings without a 1099 or W2-G follow these steps: Here's where you enter Form W-2G (Certain Gambling Winnings) in TurboTax:

  1. Open or continue your return.
  2. Locate the W-2G section:
    • TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to W-2G.
    • TurboTax Desktop: Search for W2G (don't include any hyphens) and select the Jump to link.
  3. Answer Yes on the Did you win money or other prizes in 2024? screen.
  4. Answer No, I didn't receive a W-2G.on the next screen and proceed through the interview.
  5. Follow the instructions to enter information related to gambling winnings

After you've finished entering all of your gambling winnings, we'll ask about any losses you may have had. Losses can be deducted up to the amount you reported winning, but only if you itemize.
