If you qualify, did you receive the Lottery Credit reduction on your property tax bill?
The Lottery Credit is displayed on your real estate tax bill as a reduction of property taxes due to qualifying taxpayers.
To qualify for the Lottery and Gaming Credit, you must be a Wisconsin resident, own a dwelling and use it as your primary residence as of the January 1 certification date of the year the property taxes are levied.
If an owner is temporarily absent, typically for a period no longer than six months (ex: hospital, vacation, incarcerated), the primary residence is the home where the owner returns. Principal dwelling means any dwelling the owner of the dwelling uses as his/her primary residence.
A property owner may claim only one primary residence. You cannot claim the Lottery and Gaming Credit on business property, rental units, vacant land, garages or other property that is not the owner’s primary residence (sec. 79.10(1)(dm), (9)(bm), Wis. Stats.).
