If I won money from four jackpots totaling about $13,000 to $14,000, and I wasn't taxed at the moment of payment, will I owe money to the IRS? I am a head of household with two dependents, self-employed earning about $6,000 to $8,000 a year, and this year I will have a W2 for about $3,000. Should I file a tax return, and could I get a refund? Can I use a win-loss statement on my tax return, and what is recommended in my situation?
