Does each Form w-2g have to be inputted? I have many from gambling wins.

the majority of my winnings are from three casinos. Can I group the total winnings from each casino rather that inputting every single W-2G form?

For all the W-2G's from the same casino, enter the information from each of the W-2G's into a spreadsheet (or otherwise total them) and enter the totals into TurboTax as though you received a single W-2G. If you were ever questioned, you can easily explain your method and justify the numbers that you entered.

Did anyone try this method and did you get any questions from the IRS when using this method? Sure wish TT would allow you to see every W-2G entered, not just a limited number of them. Makes it hard to review the entering you did into TT.
