The TaxAct Wisconsin 1040 Edition does not include the "session" calculation method for gambling winnings and losses. If you qualify for this method, you must manually calculate the amount of net winnings.

If you determine any difference in taxable amounts of your gambling winnings, under the session method, you can then enter an adjustment.

To enter an adjustment in the TaxAct program:

1. From within your TaxAct return (Online or Desktop), click State, then click Wisconsin (or WI. On smaller devices, click in the upper left-hand corner, then click State).
2. Click Income and Adjustments in the Wisconsin Quick Q&A Topics menu to expand, click Subtractions from Income to expand, then click Other Subtractions.
3. Continue with the interview process to enter all of the appropriate information.
4. On the screen titled Wisconsin - Subtractions, enter your manually calculated gambling adjustment (if any) as Amounts not taxable by Wisconsin, then click Continue. Be sure to keep with your records, the information used to determine your taxable amount for Wisconsin to support this adjustment.
