Tax on sweepstakes prizes in Texas
Prizes you redeem from Sweeps Coins count as income. The IRS says a prize from a drawing or other event must be included in your income on your federal return, wherever you live.
Texas does not have a personal income tax, so there is no state income tax on prizes you redeem.
