The MDI will withhold Federal and State taxes at 24% and 5% respectively on prizes over $5,000. It is important to understand that the taxes withheld, if any, may not cover your entire Federal or State tax obligations. The final tax amount owed will depend on your personal tax situation. As the Maine State Lottery, MDI or its employees cannot provide you with financial advice, we suggest you consult with a tax professional. Additionally, IRS Form W-2G will be mailed to you in January for any prizes claimed over $600 or more.
