The Ultra Lotto 6/58 is drawn every Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday.
To avoid forfeiture of winnings, winners have one year from the date of the draw to claim the prize, as specified in Republic Act 1169.
The PCSO further reminded the public that all lotto jackpot prizes must be claimed at the PCSO main office along Shaw Boulevard in Mandaluyong City.
To claim the prizes, winners must write their names and sign at the back of the winning ticket and present two government-issued IDs.
