North Carolina Lottery: common questions

Common questions about playing and claiming lottery prizes in North Carolina.

What time are the North Carolina lottery drawings?
Powerball is drawn Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 PM ET, and Mega Millions Tuesday and Friday at 11:00 PM ET. Those times are the same everywhere the games are sold. North Carolina's own games draw on local time: daily numbers games often draw twice a day, midday and evening, while lotto-style games usually draw at night. Each game's page on Lottery Atlas shows its exact draw days and time, and our guide to what time lottery drawings happen covers every game.
What are the current North Carolina lottery jackpots?
This page lists the latest advertised jackpot for each North Carolina game next to its winning numbers, with Powerball and Mega Millions at the top. Jackpots update automatically after each drawing, and each game's page shows the next draw time.
How old do you have to be to play the lottery in North Carolina?
You must be at least 18 years old to buy a lottery ticket in North Carolina, and retailers may ask for ID.
Can I remain anonymous if I win the lottery in North Carolina?
Only briefly, and only for the biggest jackpots. North Carolina treats winners' names as public records. A winner of $50 million or more can ask the lottery to keep their identity confidential until 90 days after the claim. People with a court protective order or in the Address Confidentiality Program are also protected.
How much tax will I pay on lottery winnings in North Carolina?
North Carolina withholds 3.99% in state income tax from lottery prizes of $600 or more. The federal government withholds 24% from prizes over $5,000. Withholding is only a prepayment: what you owe depends on your total income for the year, and most of a jackpot-sized prize is taxed at the top federal rate of 37%, so expect to owe more when you file. A tax professional can help you plan before you claim a large prize.
How long do I have to claim a lottery prize in North Carolina?
You have 180 days from the draw date to claim a draw-game prize in North Carolina, including Powerball and Mega Millions. Scratch-off tickets usually have their own deadline, often counted from the end of the game, so check the back of the ticket. Unclaimed prizes are forfeited. If you win a jackpot, ask the lottery how and when you choose between the cash option and the annuity, because the rules differ from state to state.
Where do North Carolina Lottery profits go?
North Carolina Lottery profits go mainly to education, including school support staff, school construction, NC Pre-K and college scholarships. Prizes, retailer commissions and operating costs are paid first.
Where can I check the latest North Carolina lottery results?
This page shows the latest winning numbers for every North Carolina lottery game and updates automatically after each draw. Powerball and Mega Millions results appear at the top of every page. Bookmark it, or check back after the next scheduled draw.

Facts checked October 2026. Lottery laws and tax rates change, so confirm with the official North Carolina Lottery before you make a legal or financial decision based on this information.
