In Connecticut, all winners' names, cities, and prize amounts are kept as public records. However, winners with a valid protective order or Address Confidentiality Program authorization card can remain anonymous.
We suggest that you consult a lawyer before claiming any big prizes, however, as it may be possible to claim your prize through a trust to retain your anonymity.
Lottery tickets cannot be replaced. Always sign the back of your ticket as soon as you get it and keep it safe.
Money from lottery ticket sales goes toward the state's general fund, which provides funding for human services, hospitals, education, and conservation.
