Limited Availability Lottery

Tips:

  • For each lottery you entered, make sure you have the email with your lottery number handy. The lottery you entered is in the subject line.
  • Make sure to check your lottery number against the correct lottery results. For example, if you entered the Montgomery County Resident Lottery and your assigned number is 0123, make sure you are checking the winners list for the Montgomery County Resident Lottery and not one of the other two lotteries that ran at the same time.
  • If you did not receive an email confirming you are a winner, you either entered your email incorrectly in the submission process or you may be checking the wrong winners list.
  • Please contact the ABS Communications Center with any questions — 240-777-1900 or [email protected].​
