Delete gambling winnings

TurboTax Live Self Employed

did you receive a 1099-G form or otherwise have gambling winnings, then the income requires reporting.

if you inadvertantly completed the section related to gambling wins and really didn't have that, then since you have already filed, you should amend the tax return.

if you were thinking that gambling wins should have been netted against gamling losses and therefore you didn;t have any income to report, it does work that way. Win Income is reported, and related gambling losses are only deductible when itemizing and then only to the extent of gains.
