What we don't know:

The winning ticket holder has not yet been identified. Since the prize is more than $600, the ticket holder will need to visit a New York Lottery Customer Service Center or Prize Claim Center, and bring their winning ticket, a filled out Winner Claim Form (which can be downloaded from the New York Lottery website), a valid government-issued ID and a valid Social Security Number or FEIN.

If your prize is $600 or more, you can claim it at any New York Lottery Customer Service Center, Prize Claim Center or by mail. See details on each method below.

New York is one of several states that does not allow lottery winners to remain anonymous if their jackpot is greater than $5,000, but there are several pieces of legislation in the State Assembly and Senate trying to change that.
