copy of photo identification and proof of their social security number. All forms and required
documentation must be received by the Commission within 30 days of the date the forms were
mailed from the Commission. Failure to comply will result in the prize package being forfeited and
the prize will be awarded to the first available alternate winner.
All prizes will be awarded within 30 days of the required forms and documentation being received

Commission and its promotional partner, Alchemy3, shall not be responsible for any prizes lost,

taxes or fees will be the responsibility of the prize winner.

Pursuant to RSA 284:21-v, the Commission is required to review all lottery prize claims subject to
federal tax reporting with a child support database provided by the New Hampshire Department of

any prize package described above owes child support, the winner shall have 5 days from the draw
date to settle the total arrearage due as determined by DCSS. Failure to settle any arrearage shall
result in that winner’s prize package being forfeited and the package will be issued to the first

compensation from the Commission related to this game.
