Here is how to add your gambling winnings in TurboTax Online:

 

  • Click on Federal Taxes,  Wages & Income,  scroll down to Less Common Income > Gambling Winnings > Start or Revisit
  • Answer "Yes" to Did you win money or other prizes in 2024?
  • Next you'll be asked Whose W-2G do you want to work on? Since you have no W-2G, answer We didn't receive a W-2G and continue.
  • Now the screen Let's check for winnings not reported on a W-2G appears and you can enter your winnings.
