Title: Avoiding Tax on winnings Post by: dalzini on February 16, 2007, 12:28:14 PM I am off to Vegas this summer and have read that brits are exempt from paying tax on their winnings providing you fill in then necessary documentation, could anyone give me details on how to do this or point me in the direction or a previous post that may have covered this?
Much appreciated Title: Re: Avoiding Tax on winnings Post by: Suited_Jock on February 16, 2007, 12:42:18 PM I believe you need an ITIN number

Don't win!!! :)up Title: Re: Avoiding Tax on winnings Post by: matt674 on February 16, 2007, 01:02:48 PM I believe you need an ITIN number http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96287,00.html#who But on a more serious note............... Dont try and get an ITIN number before you go to Vegas (as this monkey did before his first visit worried they may not let him bring his banana money home with him), you can only apply for an ITIN number after you've won. http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=9753.0 Title: Re: Avoiding Tax on winnings Post by: M3boy on February 16, 2007, 02:09:50 PM Most Casino's will sort you out an ITIN number
