    Gambling winnings are taxable income.  Losses are an itemized deduction.  If you do not have enough itemized deductions to exceed your standard deduction, your losses will have no effect.

    Currently, TurboTax doesn't support uploading W-2G forms as documents for your 2025 federal tax return. Instead, you need to enter the W-2G information manually by typing in the details exactly as they appear on your form.

    This ensures the program accurately processes your gambling winnings. You can use the guided entry under the W-2G section in the Federal Income area to input the required information.

     

    To enter your W-2G in TurboTax Online:
    1. Go to the W-2G section under Income in the Federal section.
    2. Select Start or Add W-2G to enter your gambling winnings.
    3. Follow the prompts to input your W-2G details.
