$1.8 Billion Powerball Jackpot: How Much the Winner Would Take Home in Every State

Today’s Powerball jackpot has climbed to $1.8 billion — the second most in U.S. lottery history – and you can take home anywhere from $430 million to $1.1 billion of that. It all depends on (a) whether you claim it in one lump sum or in 30 annuity payments and (b) where you live, as outlined by USA Mega.

Every state takes its share of taxes, so – if you take it in one check – you could get as little as $431 million in New Jersey to as much as $520 million in the 10 states without lottery taxes. The lump sum payment, before taxes, is $826 million.

The annuity payments come over 30 years and break down to $1.135 billion for the 10 states without lottery taxes, to as little as $939 million (New York). The lump sum after federal taxes — but before state taxes — is $520,674,980 while the 30 annuity payments break down to $37,842,980.

This jackpot is second only to the $2.04 billion Powerball won in California on Nov. 7, 2022. There has been no winner since May 31, 2025 – this is the 42nd drawing since then.

Powerball is played in 45 states. Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Nevada and Utah are not part of the lottery.

See how much you would take home in your state, if you were lucky enough to win today.
