Megabucks Annuity Payout
The remaining amount is the total of your lump sum payment. For example, if you win $1 million, your lump sum payout is half of that, or $500,000. Federal withholding is 25% of the payout, or $125,000. If your state has a 7% income tax it will withhold that amount as well - in this example, $35,000. The resulting lump sum payout is $340,000. Unsurprisingly, almost all holders of Megabucks jackpots prefer to receive their winnings in the form of annual payments. However, in this case, they also have to pay taxes, the Internal Revenue Service of the United States (IRS) very strictly follows this.
