I am a resident of Texas and won money at a Louisiana Casino and they withheld Louisiana taxes. Do I get back all that was withheld?


Any nonresident with income (winnings) from Louisiana sources who is required to file a federal individual income tax return must file a Louisiana return reporting income earned. If the amount withheld exceeds your income tax liability, a refund of the difference will be issued or credited.
