If you’ve won at a casino or gaming facility in the U.S., you have up to three years to make a claim. As the top provider of gaming tax refund services of Canadians and other non-U.S. residents, we recommend contacting us immediately following your return to your country of origin. Refund Management Services will get your winnings back in as little six to nine weeks if you have an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) and have won in the previous year, but note that we file at the end of a tax year for any wins in the current year.

Aside from the necessary slips from the casino (which we can obtain for you if you’ve lost them), we also ask that our clients have one or two of the required three pieces of valid identification, such as a valid certified passport or driver’s license and birth certificate.

And best of all, when Refund Management Services obtains a full or partial refund, it will not count as taxable income. In addition, the cash you receive will be in U.S. dollars, so once Canadians convert it to Canadian dollars, for example, you may just end up earning more! And the same may be true for other non-U.S. residents converting the winnings to currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
