Gambling Winnings - Different State

[zed93]

I reside in WA and have gambling winnings to report for ID.  I have purchased the ID State Turbo Tax. In the form there is a section to enter "Other Income" which is for gambling.  My question: should the value I enter be the net amount (based on taxes taken at time of winning) or should I enter the gross amount before taxes?

You would report the gross amount before taxes as your income from gambling.

Sounds good.  Then when I proceed through the state turbo tax I come to a section that states "Idaho Lottery Winnings."  When I click on the help item it states:

You can deduct Idaho lottery winnings of less than $600 per prize that are included in federal adjusted gross income.

Note: Lottery prizes from other states do not qualify for this deduction.

 Is the underlined section above a typo, then, and should read:  "...Idaho lottery winnings of more than..."

It seems that my federal withholding should go in this box, but doesn't seemed it's phrased correctly.

Thank you,
