The following rules apply to casual gamblers who aren't in the trade or business of gambling. Gambling winnings are fully taxable and you must report the income on your tax return. Gambling income includes but isn't limited to winnings from lotteries, raffles, horse races, and casinos. It includes cash winnings and the fair market value of prizes, such as cars and trips.

Gambling Winnings

A payer is required to issue you a Form W-2G, Certain Gambling Winnings if you receive certain gambling winnings or have any gambling winnings subject to federal income tax withholding. You must report all gambling winnings on Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR (use Schedule 1 (Form 1040)PDF), including winnings that aren't reported on a Form W-2GPDF. When you have gambling winnings, you may be required to pay an estimated tax on that additional income. For information on withholding on gambling winnings, refer to Publication 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax.

Gambling Losses

You may deduct gambling losses only if you itemize your deductions on Schedule A (Form 1040) and kept a record of your winnings and losses. The amount of losses you deduct can't be more than the amount of gambling income you reported on your return. Claim your gambling losses up to the amount of winnings, as "Other Itemized Deductions."

Nonresident Aliens

If you're a nonresident alien of the United States for income tax purposes and you have to file a tax return for U.S. source gambling winnings, you must use Form 1040-NR, U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return. Refer to Publication 519, U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens and Publication 901, U.S. Tax Treaties for more information. Generally, nonresident aliens of the United States who aren't residents of Canada can't deduct gambling losses. See As a Nonresident Alien, Are My Gambling Winnings Exempt From Federal Income Tax? to find out if your gambling winnings are exempt from federal income tax. For additional information on withholding on gambling winnings, refer to Publication 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities.

Recordkeeping

To deduct your losses, you must keep an accurate diary or similar record of your gambling winnings and losses and be able to provide receipts, tickets, statements, or other records that show the amount of both your winnings and losses. Refer to Publication 529, Miscellaneous Deductions for more information.

For additional information, refer to Publication 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income or review How Do I Claim My Gambling Winnings and/or Losses?

What does it mean if a girl sends 💕?

The two hearts emoji is used frequently in text messages relating to love. While it is a symbol of romantic love, it can also be used to show affection for other close relationships, such as with family and friends (e.g., I 💕 to the moon and back).

dictionary.com - Two Hearts emoji Meaning - Dictionary.com

The two hearts emoji is one of the most widely used heart-based emoji, of which there are literally dozens. It is frequently paired with other heart emoji for emphasis, especially the red heart emoji or beating heart emoji. The two hearts emoji is used frequently in text messages relating to love. While it is a symbol of romantic love, it can also be used to show affection for other close relationships, such as with family and friends (e.g., I 💕 to the moon and back). Because it looks the hearts are floating, the two hearts emoji can sometimes more specifically convey the sense of love is in the air to represent a general romantic mood or atmosphere. On social media, those who show love or affection for someone or something often use the two hearts emoji by itself or with other emoji to convey warm, happy feelings (e.g., Happy birthday to my amazing sister! 💕🎂💋😊). The two hearts emoji can also be used in a silly or sarcastic manner when referring to something that doesn’t usually excite love and affection (e.g., Who doesn’t love spring cleaning? 💕🌼✨🤣). On Snapchat, the two hearts emoji will appear next to a contact that has been your “#1 best friend” for two months in a row.
