The next Powerball drawing will be Saturday, July 5, the day after the July Fourth holiday.
Prizes for Florida Lottery must be claimed within 180 days (six months) from the date of the drawing. To claim a single-payment cash option, a winner has within the first 60 days after the applicable draw date to claim it.
The Florida Lottery says its scratch-off tickets and Fast Play game prizes "must be claimed within 60 days of the official end-of-game date. Once the applicable time period has elapsed, the related Florida Lottery ticket will expire."
According to Florida Lottery's website, winners cannot remain anonymous: "Florida law mandates that the Florida Lottery provide records containing information such as the winner's name, city of residence; game won, date won, and amount won to any third party who requests the information."
However, the site states, the "names of lottery winners claiming prizes of $250,000 or greater will be temporarily exempt from public disclosure for 90 days from the date the prize is claimed, unless otherwise waived by the winner."
Lottery experts and lawyers have said there are ways to remain anonymous if you win.

CAMPBELL, Calif., July 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Barracuda Networks, Inc., a leading cybersecurity company providing complete protection against complex threats for all sized businesses, today announced the launch of Barracuda Entra ID Backup Premium – a comprehensive, cost-effective solution to safeguard Microsoft Entra ID environments from accidental and malicious data loss.

Barracuda Entra ID Backup Premium protects the 13 most essential identity components needed to maintain a secure and resilient Microsoft Entra ID environment. This includes users, groups, roles, administrative units, app registrations, audit logs, authentication and access policies, BitLocker keys, device management configurations, and more. "As a trusted MSP, we understand how essential Microsoft 365 is to our customers' operations – which makes protecting and restoring Entra ID security components absolutely mission-critical," said John Quatto, channel partner manager at Zobrio.

NTRA Announces Support For FAIR BET Act
NTRA Announces Support For FAIR BET Act originally appeared on Paulick Report. The National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) announced its support for the bipartisan Fair Accounting for Income Realized from Betting Earnings Taxation (FAIR BET) Act on July 8. The FAIR BET Act, introduced by Representative Dina Titus (D-NV), seeks to restore the 100% deduction for gambling losses. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, just recently signed into law, amended the deduction so that gamblers could only deduct 90% of their losses, instead of 100%. The legislation is co-sponsored by Reps. Troy Nehls (R-TX), Ro Khanna (D-CA), Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), Steven Horsford (D-NV), and Mark Amodei (R-NV), as of Tuesday, July 8. 'The NTRA commends Congresswoman Titus for introducing the FAIR BET Act, which will restore the 100% tax deduction for gaming losses,' said NTRA President and CEO Tom Rooney.'There is no Thoroughbred racing without horseplayers. The changes to the tax deduction are detrimental to them and must be fixed. We're glad that swift bipartisan action is being taken. Along with Congresswoman Titus, the NTRA will continue to work alongside the Trump administration and leaders in the House and Senate to restore the tax deduction.'The Congresswoman has led the charge on rectifying this change to the tax code, which is set to take effect next year. 'My FAIR BET Act would rightfully restore the full deduction for losses so gamblers don't pay taxes on money they haven't won,' Congresswoman Titus said. 'This common-sense legislation will bring fairness back to gaming taxation, making sure that gamblers can fully deduct losses when they report their winnings. It gives everyone –from recreational gamblers to high-stakes gamblers -- a fair shake. We should be encouraging players to properly report their winnings and wager using legal operators. The Senate change will only push people to not report their winnings and to use unregulated platforms.''While I proudly voted for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which prevents the largest tax hike in American history, the Senate's version contained a provision that I strongly disagree with,' said Congressman Nehls. 'Prior to the passage of the OBBBA, the tax code contained a 100% deduction for gambling losses and expenses up to the amount of the individual's winnings. This deduction was not changed in the House-passed version of the bill. The Senate, unfortunately, included a provision in their version of the legislation that reduced the allowable deduction to 90%, creating an overly punitive tax on gambling. This provision is unfair, which is exactly why I am a cosponsor of Rep. Dina Titus' FAIR BET Act.'Rep. Titus's bill can be found here.
