Quick Answer
Quick Answer: Can You Sell Annuity Payments in Nevada?
Yes. You can sell all of your remaining payments or only a portion. Structured settlement annuities require court approval in Nevada (typically about 60 days); most other annuities close in a few weeks with no hearing. Quotes are free with no obligation.
What You Can Sell in Nevada
Structured settlement annuities. Payments from a personal injury, wrongful death, or workers compensation settlement. Nevada law (Nev. Rev. Stat. § 42.065 et seq.) requires a judge to confirm the sale is in your best interest - a consumer protection, and the filing work is handled for you.
Other annuities. Inherited annuities, investment annuities, and lottery prize annuities can also be sold. Because these are not covered by the settlement transfer statute, they usually close faster.
Partial sales. You choose which payments to sell and which to keep. Many Nevada sellers cash out only a few years of payments and keep the rest of their schedule intact.

Other annuity types generally do not require a court hearing and can close faster.
How long does it take in Nevada?
Structured settlement annuity transfers in Nevada typically clear court in about 60 days, which includes the state's required notice period (20 days advance notice to all interested parties). Non-settlement annuities often complete in a few weeks because no hearing is required.
Will I owe Nevada taxes if I sell?
Nevada has no state income tax, so there is no state-level tax on your lump sum.

For other annuity types, the taxable portion follows the same federal rules that applied to your payments.
