Re(2): #474 - (redux) Do you worry about the tax man?

I have hit a number of W-2G jackpots over the years at Mohegan Sun, which is an Indian property, and they have always asked me if I wanted them to withhold federal tax. I usually have them do it, so I don't end up owing taxes when I file my return.

I'm curious though, TR, why do you think an Indian casino would withhold taxes from non-citizens? Non-citizens usually don't have social security numbers, so how would the casino report these taxes?
