Yes, if you have gambling winnings, they are reported on Form W-2G.  Gambling losses can be claimed against your gambling winnings but only if you itemize your deduction and only up to the total of reported gambling and prize winnings.

To enter gambling winnings and losses income in TurboTax Online or Desktop (for TurboTax Online sign-in, click Here), please follow these steps:

1. Once you are in your tax return, click on the “Federal Taxes” tab ("Personal" tab in TurboTax Home & Business)
2. Next click on “Wages & Income” ("Personal Income" in TurboTax Home & Business)
3. Next click on add more income “I’ll choose what I work on” (jump to full list or see more income)
4. Scroll down the screen until to come to the section “Less Common Income”
5. Choose “Gambling Winnings ” and select “start’

You will not have to file a nonresident state income tax return because NV does not have state income taxes.
