Pennsylvania Lottery draw game prizes expire one year from the drawing date. In some states, players have only 90 or 180 days to claim a prize. By law, unclaimed prizes remain in the Lottery Fund to pay for programs benefiting older Pennsylvanians.

Players should check tickets at Lottery retailers or by using the ticket checker on the Lottery's official mobile app, sign winning tickets and promptly claim prizes.
