Winners Checklist

some friendly tips to complete your win

Winning with the Florida Lottery is just as fun and easy as playing, but you’ll need some important information. Check out our Winner’s Checklist for all the details to complete your win!

  1. Sign your ticket
    As soon as you have verified your ticket is a winner, always sign the back right away to ensure your claim on your prize.

  2. Claim in person or by mail
    Depending on your prize amount, you may have the option to claim in person or through the mail. 

  3. Pick a payment plan 
    Payment plan options (lump sum or annuity payments) are available for prizes won through select games.

  4. Complete required forms
    To claim a prize of $600 or more, you’ll need to provide identification and complete certain forms.

  5. Remember to account for taxes
    Regardless of prize amount or the prize payment method, appropriate federal taxes will always be withheld before the prize is paid. Remember to account for this in any financial planning!

The day before my mom bought this ticket, I rang the bell and walked out of the hospital after completing my last treatment for breast cancer. My mom had taken out her life savings to take care of me when I was sick. I'm just so happy for her!
