Payment Options Generally, Ohio income and school district income tax is due by April 15, 2026. There are several options for paying these taxes. To ensure your payments are applied correctly, you must make Ohio and school district income tax payments separately. Additionally, do not combine income tax payments for multiple tax years. The Department is not authorized to set up payment plans. You may submit partial payments toward any outstanding tax, interest, or penalty. However, such payments will not stop the Department's billing process or collection attempts by the Ohio Attorney General's Office. Note: The Department cannot take payments over the phone. 2025 Ohio IT 1040 / SD 100 Electronic Check Most filers can pay by electronic check via the Departmen t's OH|TAX eServices available at tax.ohio. gov/pay.

Note: I f you are filing in Ohio for the first time, you may not be eligible to use the Department's OH|TAX eServices to pay your Ohio income taxes. Additionally, electronic filers can follow their filing software's payment prompts at the time they file. An electronic check withdraws funds directly from your checking or savings account. There is no fee for using this payment method. Generally, your payment will be withdrawn within 24 hours of the date you choose for payment. You must ensure that the funds are in your account and available on the date you choose for payment. The payment will show on your bank statement as "STATE OF OHIO" . You can delay payment until the payment deadline of April 15, 2026. You can also pay your quarterly 2026 Ohio individual and/or school district estimated income tax with this method. Important: Future-dated payments can only be modified through the Department's OH|TAX eServices at tax.ohio.gov/OHTAX. Debit or Credit Card Any filer can pay using a debit or credit card (Discover, Visa, MasterCard, or American Express) at tax.ohio. gov/pay. Note: A third-party payment processor handles all card payments. The third-party will charge your account a convenience fee. Paper Check or Money Order Any filer can pay by check or money order. If you pay with this method, you must include an Ohio Universal Payment Coupon (OUPC), available at tax.ohio.gov/ forms. If you use a money order, keep a copy for your records. You will be charged a $50 fee for writing a bad check. See page 2 for mailing addresses. Ohio IT 1040: Make your check or money order payable to "Ohio Treasurer of State. " Include the tax year, "IT 1040, " and the last four digits of your SSN on the "Memo" line. Include an OUPC that indicates "Individual Income Tax.

" Include the tax year, "SD 100, " the last four digits of your SSN, and the school district number on the "Memo" line. Include an OUPC that indicates "School District Income Tax. " If you are filing for multiple districts on page 3 of the SD 100, use the first school district number from Column A. Federal Privacy Act Notice: Because we require you to provide us with a Social Security number, the Federal Privacy Act of 1974 requires us to inform you that providing us with your Social Security number is mandatory. 42 U.S.C. 405 and Ohio Revised Code sections 5703.057 and 5747.08 authorize us to request this information.

Paper returns will take approximately 8 to 10 weeks to process. What Information Must a Preparer Provide? A tax return preparer must provide their printed name and Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) on all returns. The PTIN serves as the preparer's signature. The preparer should not otherwise sign the return. Non-paid preparers should check the appropriate box. See R.C. 5703.263(C) and 5747.08(F). Can My Tax Preparer Contact the Department About My Tax Return? You may check the box below your tax preparer's name on page 2 of the return to authorize your preparer to: ●Contact the Department about the status of your return, payments , or refund; ●Provide the Department with information missing from your return; AND ●R espond to inquiries or notices from the Department related to the r eturn.

See R.C. 5747.08(J). Should I Make Estimated Tax Payments for Tax Year 2026? If your income is subject to Ohio withholding, you generally do not need to make estimated payments. You should make estimated payments for tax year 2026 if your estimated Ohio tax liability (total tax minus total credits) less Ohio withholding is more than $500. Estimated payments are made quarterly according to the following schedule: 1st quarter - April 15, 2026 2nd quarter - June 15, 2026 3rd quarter - Sept. 15, 2026 4th quarter - Jan. 15, 2027 Use the appropriat e OUPC t o make estimated Ohio income tax and/or school district tax payments. You can determine your estimated payments using the worksheet included with the coupons.

Estimated payments will only be applied to the return associated with the Social Security number listed on the OUPC. Payments

will not be split between you and your spouse if you combine your tax liabilities, but file separately. Instead of making estimated payments, you can increase your Ohio withholding by filing a revised Ohio IT 4 with your employer. Also, special rules regarding estimated payments apply to certain taxpayers with farming and/ or fishing income. See Adm. Code 5703-7-04. If you do not make the required estimated payments, you may be subject to an interest penalty for underpayment of estimated taxes. See form IT/SD 2210. For more information, see the FAQs at tax.ohio. gov/2210. See also R.C. 5747.09. What Is Modified Adjusted Gross Income? Modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is your Ohio adjusted gross income (Ohio IT 1040, line 3) plus your business income deduction (Ohio Schedule of Adjustments, line 13). If you did not take a business income deduction, your MAGI matches your Ohio adjusted gross income. You will need to know your MAGI to determine your:

●Exemption amount;

●Retirement income credit; ●Lump sum retirement credit; ●Senior citizen credit; ●Lump sum distribution credit; ●Child care and dependent care credit; ●Exemption credit; AND ●Join t filing credit. Additionally, if you live in an earned income tax base school district, your taxable income is limited to only earned income included in your MAGI. Use the worksheet on page 40 to calculate your MAGI. See R.C. 5747.01(II).

What if a Taxpayer Is Deceased? The taxpa yer's representative, such as an executor or administrator, must file the deceased taxpayer's return by: ●Checking the "Deceased" box after their SSN; ●Selecting the filing status from the feder al income tax return; AND ●Signing the return on behalf of the deceased. I f the taxpayer is due a refund, the check will be issued in the taxpa yer's name. The taxpayer's representative can present proof that they are the executor or administrator to the bank when cashing the check. If the taxpayer's representative needs the check reissued to include their name, see the FAQs at tax. ohio.gov/faq-IncomeGeneral for instructions. See R.C. 5747.08(A). What if I Move After Filing My Return? If you move after filing your return, notify the Department of your new address as soon as possible. You should also notify the post office at moversguide. usps.com. Amending Your Ohio IT 1040 and SD 100 You can file an amended Ohio IT 1040 or SD 100 to report changes to your originally filed return(s). An amended return can result in either a tax due or a refund based on the changes. Under certain circumstances, an amended return may be required. To amend the Ohio IT 1040 or SD 100, you should file a new return, reflecting all proposed changes, and indicate that it is amended by checking the box at the top of page 1. You must include the IT RE with your amended IT 1040 and/or the SD RE with your amended SD 100. Use your current mailing address on the amended return.

2025 Ohio IT 1040 / SD 100 Requesting a Refund You may amend your return to claim additional credits, deductions, payments, or withholding. Such changes may result in a refund. Generally, you have four years from the date of the payment to request a refund. You must include documentation to support the changes reported on your amended return. Some common required documentation includes:

●Business Income: Page 1 of your federal return, the federal schedules reporting your business income, and IT K-1 forms; ●Social Security, disability, survivorship, and retirement benefits: C opies of 1099(s), page 1 of your federal return, and the retirement plan paying the benefits; ●Residency status: Any document support ing your residency change including property records (mortgage statements, lease agreements, etc.), driver's licenses or state IDs, voter registration, resident state tax returns, armed services records, and utility bills; ●Payments/withholding/credits: Copies of your income statements (W-2, 1099, etc.), Ohio IT K-1, or credit certificates; ●Nonresident credit: Ohio form IT NRC. See R.C. 5747.11. Reporting Additional Tax Due You should amend your return to report additional income or reduce a previously claimed credit or deduction. Such changes may result in additional tax due. Changes to Your Federal Return If the IRS makes changes to your federal return, either based on an audit or an amended return, and those changes affect your Ohio return(s), you are required to file an amended IT 1040 and/or SD 100. The IRS notifies the Department of these changes. Do not file your amended Ohio return(s) until the IRS has finalized the changes to your federal return. Once they are finalized, include a copy of all of the following:

●Your federal 1040X; ●The IRS acceptance letter; AND ●The refund check from the IRS, if applicable. Note: I nstead of providing these documents, you may be able to submit a copy of the IRS Tax Account Transcript reflecting your updated federal return information. If there is a change in your filing status and/or dependents, it must be reflected on y our amended Ohio return(s). Additionally, for changes to dependents, complete an updated Ohio Schedule of Dependents. Net Operating Loss: To claim a federal NOL carryback, check both boxes at the top of the return(s) and include a completed Ohio Schedule IT NOL. See the instructions for the Ohio Schedule IT NOL on page 63. Your amended Ohio IT 1040 and/or SD 100 must be filed no later than 90 days after the IRS completes its review of your federal return, even after the four-year period has passed. Failure to file the return within the 90-day period may result in an assessment or a denial of your refund claim. See R.C. 5747.10. Changes to Your Resident Credit You must file an Ohio amended return based on changes made by another state if all of the following are true:

●You claimed a resident credit on your Ohio IT 1040; ●You filed income tax returns in other states; ●The Ohio resident credit claimed was based on the taxes due or the taxes paid to the other sta tes; ●The other states made changes to the returns; AND ●The changes will aff ec t your Ohio resident credit calculation. Your income tax es paid to other states may change after the four-year period has passed. If the taxes paid would otherwise qualify for the Ohio resident credit, you have an additional 90 days after the changes have been finalized by the state(s) to file an amended return and request any refund that results from the changes. Once the changes are finalized, please include a copy of all of the following: ●A revised Ohio form IT RC; ●The other state r eturn(s) or correction notice(s); AND ●Proof of payment to the other state(s). See R.C. 5747.05(B)(4).

Ohio Income Tax for Military Servicemembers and Their Civilian Spouses

Residency. A military servicemember is a resident of their "state of legal residence. " This is generally the same as the servicemember's "home of record" unless it is subsequently changed. The servicemember's state of legal residence does not change based on military orders. Generally, a servicemember's civilian spouse will also retain their original state of legal residence. A civilian spouse's residency does not change by reason of being present or absent in a state solely to be with the servicemember as part of military orders. Both the servicemember and their spouse can elect to use any of the following as their residence for state income tax purposes:

●The residence or domicile of the servicemember; ●The residence or domicile of the spouse; OR ●The permanent duty station of the servicemember. Deductions. Ohio provides five deductions to military ser vic emembers. Only income included in the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income (AGI) is eligible for these deductions. For example, Ohio Veterans Bonus payments are not included in federal AGI and thus are not deductible. The following deductions are in the "Uniformed Services" section of the Ohio Schedule of Adjustments: ●Line 32 - Deduction for military pay and allowances for active duty servicemembers sta tioned outside

Ohio ●Line 33 - Deduction for military pay earned by a nonresident servicemember ●Line 34 - Deduction f or uniformed services retirement income ●Line 35 - Deduction for military injury r elief fund

grants and veteran's disabilit y severance payments ●Line 36 - Deduction for certain reimbursements and benefits received for service in the Ohio Na tional

Guard Additionally, a servicemember's nonresident civilian spouse can deduct compensation earned in Ohio on line 33. See pages 23-24 for specific instructions on each of these deductions. Withholding. A servicemember who qualifies for the deduction on line 32 or a civilian spouse who qualifies for the deduction on line 33 can complete form IT 4 to avoid Ohio withholding on income not subject to tax. Such taxpayers should check the appropriate box in Section III of the IT 4 and provide the form to their employers. Filing. Military servicemembers may not have a filing requirement due to the deductions available under Ohio law. However, the Department recommends that such taxpayers file an Ohio IT 1040 or IT 10 to avoid delinquency billings. For more information on who must file an Ohio income tax return, see page 12. Extensions to File/Pay. Generally, Ohio recognizes any extensions granted by the IRS. Certain military servicemembers will have the same extensions to file their Ohio returns and pay any Ohio tax due. These servicemembers do not owe interest, penalties, or the interest penalty in connection with this extension period. See R.C. 5747.026 for more information. Taxability. The charts on page 42 summarize the taxability of income for military servicemembers and their civilian spouses. School District Income Tax. Military servicemembers and their civilian spouses may be liable for school district income tax if they are Ohio residents, even if they are not present in Ohio due to military orders. To determine if you are liable for school district income tax, see page 56. For more information, see tax.ohio.gov/military, or Information Release IT 2008-02, "Ohio Taxable Income and Deductions for Servicemembers and Civilian Spouses. " You can also email the Department at military-info@tax.ohio.gov. 2025 Ohio IT 1040 / SD 10010

Ohio Definitions and Examples of Business and Nonbusiness Income

How Is Business Income Treated on My Return?

Taxpayers can deduct the first $250,000 ($125,000 for married separate filers) of their business income included in their federal adjusted gross income. Also, any business income not deducted is taxed at a flat 3%. See the instructions for the Ohio Schedule of Business Income on pages 26-27. Additionally, Ohio-related business income earned by nonresidents is taxable to Ohio. See the instructions for the IT NRC on pages 35-40. How Does Ohio Law Define Business and Nonbusiness Income? "Business inc ome" is income, including gain/loss, arising from an y of the following: ●Transactions, activities, and sources in the regular course of a trade or business oper ation; ●Real, tangible, and intangible property if the acquisition, ren tal, management, and disposition of the property constitute integral parts of the regular course of a trade or business operation; ●A partial or complete liquidation of a business, including gain or loss from the sale or other disposition of goodwill; ●I ncome from certain sales of equity or ownership inter ests in a business; OR ●Compensation and guaranteed payments paid by a pass-through en tit y, or a professional employer organization on its behalf, to an investor who directly or indirectly owns 20% or more of the entity. "Nonbusiness income" is any income other than business income. See R.C. 5747.01(B), 5747.01(C) and 5733.40(A)(7). How Do I Determine What Income Is Business Income?

Business income can be determined by using either test: Transactional Test: Looks to the nature, frequency, and regularit y of the transaction. Functional Test: Looks to if the property was integral to the trade or business, or if it generated business income in the past. See Kemppel v. Zaino, 2001-Ohio-92. Sale of an equity or ownership interest in a business means the sale was treated as an asset sale for federal income tax purposes and/or the seller materially participated, as described in 26 C.F.R. 1.469-5T, in the activities of the business during the taxable year in which the sale occurs or during any of the five preceding taxable years. Generally, income recognized by a sole proprietorship or pass-through entity is business income. However, determining if income is business income is highly dependent upon the specific facts and circumstances. What Are Some Examples of Business Income vs. Nonbusiness Income? Interest and Dividends: John reports $1,500 of interest and dividend income on federal Schedule B. $200 of his interest income is from a pass-through entity that primarily operates an investment business. The remaining $1,300 is from personal, nonbusiness sources. Thus, only $200 of John's interest is business income. Capital Gains and Losses: Andrew recognizes a capital gain from the sale of a tractor used to harvest wheat on his farm. Since the tractor was integral to his farming business, the capital gain is business income. Capital Gains and Losses: Paul reports $8,000 of capital gain income on his federal Schedule D. $2,000 of the capital gains are from a pass-through entity that primarily operates an investment business. The remaining $6,000 is from personal, nonbusiness sources. Thus, only $2,000 of Paul's capital gains are business income. Rental Income and Losses: Debbie owns a rental property. She actively advertises, manages, and maintains the property. Debbie is in the trade or business of property rental. Therefore, her rental income is business income. Rental Income and Losses: Ryan occupies a home on a golf course. The golf course hosts a two-week tournament every year. Ryan annually takes a vacation to Florida and rents out his home during the tournament. While the rental might be considered regular, Ryan is not in the trade or business of property rental. Therefore, his rental income is not business income. 2025 Ohio IT 1040 11

Royalty Income: Hannah works full-time from her home writing children's books. Hannah has an agreement with a publisher that pays her a royalty for each copy of her book that is sold. Hannah is in the trade or business of writing books. Therefore, her royalty income is business income. Mineral Rights Income: Cynthia allows a company to extract minerals from her residential property. She receives income based on the company's usage of her land. Since Cynthia is not engaged in a related trade or business, it is not business income. Pass-Through Income: Ellen owns 15% of a passthrough entity. She reports $50,000 of ordinary income, $10,000 of bonus depreciation, and $60,000 of guaranteed payments on federal Schedule E. Since Ellen owns less than 20% of the entity, the guaranteed payments are nonbusiness income. Thus, her net business income from federal Schedule E is $40,000 (her ordinary income less bonus depreciation). Guaranteed Payments: Stan owns 25% of a passthrough entity. He reports a $60,000 guaranteed payment on federal Schedule E. Because he owns at least 20% of the entity, the guaranteed payment is business income. Wages/Compensation: Jim owns 80% of an S corporation. Jim receives $200,000 of wages from the S corporation, which are reported on a W-2. Because he owns at least 20% of the corporation, the wages are reclassified as business income. Trust Income: Brett sets up a trust, with himself as the beneficiary, that invests in multiple pass-through entities. Operating income from these entities is distributed to the trust, which further distributes the income to Brett. Since the income was business income to the entities, it retains its character as business income as it passes through to the trust and to Brett. Trust Income: David sets up a trust, with himself as the beneficiary, to hold his personal investments. Although David uses a trust, the usage of a trust does not create a trade or business. Therefore, the investment income is nonbusiness income to both the trust and to David. General Information for the Ohio IT 1040 Who Must File an Ohio Income Tax Return? Every Ohio resident and every part-year resident is subject to the Ohio income tax. Every nonresident having Ohio-sourced income must also file. Examples of Ohio-sourced income include the following:

●Wages or other compensation earned in Ohio (see "Exception" below); ●Ohio lottery, casino, and/or sports gaming winnings; ●Income or gain fr om Ohio property; ●Income or gain fr om a sole pr oprietorship doing business in Ohio; ●Income or gain from a pass-through entity doing business in Ohio. Exception: A full-year nonresident living in I ndiana,

Kentucky, Michigan, Pennsylvania, or West Virginia does not have to file if the nonresident's only Ohiosourced income is wages. Example: Charley lives in Kentucky but commutes to Cincinnati every day to her job. Charley's wages are not taxable in Ohio even though they are earned here. You do not have to file an Ohio income tax return if: ●Your Ohio adjusted gross income (Ohio IT 1040, line 3) is less than or equal to $0; ●The total of your senior citizen credit, lump sum distribution credit , and join t filing credit (Ohio Schedule of Credits, lines 4, 5 and 12) is equal t o or exceeds your income tax liability (Ohio IT 1040, line 8c) and you are not liable for school district income tax; OR ●Your exemption amount (Ohio IT 1040, line 4) is the same as or m ore than your Ohio adjusted gross income (Ohio IT 1040, line 3).

However, even if you meet one of these exceptions, if you have a school district income tax liability (SD 100, line 25 or 35), you are required to file the Ohio IT 1040. Note: If your federal adjusted gross income is greater than $28,450, the Department recommends that you file an Ohio IT 1040 or IT 10, even if you do not owe any tax, to avoid delinquency billings. Ohio IT 10: Certain taxpayers can file Ohio form IT 10 instead of the Ohio IT 1040. The four types of taxpayers 2025 Ohio IT 104012

2025 Ohio IT 1040 described on form IT 10 are eligible to file the form if:

●They do not have an Ohio individual income or school district income tax liabilit y; AND ●They are not requesting a refund. Do not file the IT 10 if y ou file the IT 1040. See R.C. 5747.08.

Ohio Residency

What Is My Ohio Residency Status? Resident: You are an Ohio resident for income tax purposes if you are domiciled in Ohio. Thus, under Ohio law, the terms "domiciled" and "resident" mean the same thing. Generally, any individual with an abode in Ohio is presumed to be a resident. The abode can be either owned or rented. Temporary absence from your Ohio abode, no matter how long, does not change your residency status. Thus, if you live in Ohio, the presumption is that you are an Ohio resident. Example: Brent travels to Florida each winter and returns to Ohio each spring. However, he maintains his Ohio driver's license, voter registration, etc. and has not established permanent residence in Florida. Therefore, he is a full-year resident of Ohio. Part-year resident: You are a part-year resident of Ohio if you were a resident of Ohio for a portion of the tax year and a nonresident for the rest of the tax year. Thus, you are a part-year resident if you permanently moved into or out of Ohio during the tax year. Part-year residents are entitled to the nonresident credit for any income earned while they were a resident of another state. They are also eligible for the resident credit on non-Ohio income earned while they were an Ohio resident if they were subject to, and paid tax on, that income in another state. Nonresident: You are a nonresident if you were a resident of another state for the entire tax year. Nonresidents who earn or receive income within Ohio will be able to claim the nonresident credit with respect to all items of income not earned and not received in Ohio. If you are currently a member of the military and you have questions about residency status, see page 10. For more information, see tax.ohio.gov/residency, or Information Release IT 2018-01, "Residency Guidelines - Tax Imposed on Resident and Nonresident Individuals for Taxable Years 2018 and Forward. " See also R.C. 5747.01(I)(1) and Cunningham v. Testa , 2015-Ohio- 2744. How Do I Show I Am a Nonresident of Ohio?

Any individual can challenge the presumption of Ohio residency by providing documentation showing that they are a nonresident. Ohio uses a contact period test to determine the burden of proof needed to show that an individual is a nonresident. If you had fewer than 213 contact periods in Ohio during the tax year, you must provide enough documentation to show that it is more likely than not that you were a nonresident. If you had 213 or more contact periods, you must provide clear and convincing documentation that you were a nonresident. Individuals who meet certain required criteria can establish a presumption that they were a nonresident of Ohio for the tax year by filing form IT 10 or IT 1040 and checking the Ohio Nonresident Statement check box. Once an individual establishes this nonresident presumption, the Department cannot later determine the individual was an Ohio resident for income tax purposes for the tax year. See pages 61-62. See R.C. 5747.24(B), (C), and (D). What Is a Contact Period? You have a contact period in Ohio if all of the following are true: ●You have an abode outside of Ohio; ●You are a way overnight from your abode; AND ●While away, you spend any portion of two consecutive days in Ohio. Y ou do not have to spend the night in Ohio. For example, if you spend portions of Monday and Tuesday in Ohio, but stay in a hotel in Kentucky on Monday night, you would still have a contact period in Ohio. You must spend consecutive days in Ohio to have a contact period. For example, if you spend portions of Monday and Wednesday in Ohio, but not Tuesday, then you would not have a contact period in Ohio. See R.C. 5747.24(A).

Additionally, you must enter: ● The total business income included on your federal return in C olumn A; ●The Ohio depreciation adjustment in Column B (from Ohio IT K-1, the Ohio portion of line 2c); ●T he Ohio apportioned income in Column C (from Ohio IT K-1, the Ohio portion of line 2a plus 2b ). You must complete Section III, even if you received an IT K-1 from the entity, if the IT K-1 depreciation worksheet includes amounts not added back on your previous Ohio income tax returns.

Line 22 - Column Totals

Column A: This is the total of all business income reported on your federal return. Column B: This is the total of all Ohio apportioned depreciation adjustments. The total may be a positive or negative number. Enter this amount on Section I, line 6.

2025 Ohio IT NRC Column C: This is the total of all Ohio apportioned business income. It may be positive or negative. If the amount is positive, complete lines 23 and 24. Otherwise, enter the amount on Section I, line 5. Section III - Business-Level Income & Apportionment Complete a separate Section III for each sole proprietorship or pass-through entity having property, payroll, and/or sales in Ohio. However, if an Ohio IT K-1 reporting income from a pass-through entity is attached with the IT NRC, a Section III does not need to be completed for that entity. Important: If both spouses on a joint return have an ownership interest in the same business, complete a separate Section III for each spouse. For more information, see Information Release IT 2001- 01 titled "Nexus Standards & Filing Safe Harbors for Individuals, " at tax.ohio.gov/info. Part A Calculate a separate apportionment ratio for each sole proprietorship or pass-through entity. Ohio apportionment is based on a three-factor, weighted ratio. The three factors are property and payroll, each weighted at 20%, and sales, weighted at 60%, for a total of 100%. However, if any factor's "total everywhere" is zero, the weights of the remaining factors must be proportionately increased so that the total remains 100%. You must show the reweighted factors by crossing out the listed weights and replacing them with the correct weights. Example: ABC LLC is a single-member LLC with no employee payroll. In calculating its Ohio apportionment ratio, ABC LLC must weight its property factor at 25% and its sales factor at 75%. If this business receives income from pass-through entities, its apportionment ratio calculation must include the proportionate share of each lower-tiered entity's property, payroll, and sales.

Line 1 - Property Factor

The property factor is the ratio of: Average value of property in Ohio Average value of property everywhere "Property" includes any real and tangible personal property that is owned, rented, subrented, leased, and/or subleased in the course of a trade or business. Property does not include any of the following:

● Construction in progress; ●Property not used in a trade or business; ●Property for which Ohio has issued an air, noise, or industr ial water pollution control certificate; AND ● Property used exclusively during the tax year for qualified r esearch. Note: The original cost of qualifying improvements to property in an enterprise zone, for which Ohio has issued a Tax Incentive Qualification Certificate, should be included only in Column B. The "average value" of business property is calculated by averaging the total value of all applicable property owned or rented at the beginning and end of the tax year. See R.C. 5747.21(B) and 5733.05(B)(2)(a). Line 1(a) - Property Owned Column A: Enter the average value of all Ohio business property owned during the tax year. Column B: Enter the average value of all business property owned during the tax year. Property owned by the business is valued at its original cost. Line 1(b) - Property Rented Column A: Enter the average value of all Ohio business property rented during the tax year. Column B: Enter the average value of all business property rented during the tax year. Property rented by the business is valued at eight times the net annual rental rate (annual rental expense less subrental receipts).

Line 2 - Payroll Factor

The payroll factor is the ratio of: Total compensation paid in Ohio Total compensation paid everywhere "Compensation" means any form of remuneration paid to an employee for personal services. Compensation does not include any of the following: ●A mounts paid to employees for services unrelated

to a trade or business;

●Amounts paid to employees who are primarily engaged in qualified r esearch; AND ●Amounts reclassified as a distributive share of income from a pass-through entity under R.C. 5733.40(A)(7). Note: Compensation paid to certain employees at an urban job and enterprise zone facility, for which Ohio has issued a Tax Incentive Qualification Certificate, should be included only in Column B. See R.C. 5747.21(B) and 5733.05(B)(2)(b). Column A: Enter the total compensation paid in Ohio dur ing the tax year. Compensation is paid in Ohio if: ●T he employee's job is entirely in Ohio; ●The employee's job is primarily in Ohio with only inciden tal work outside Ohio; ●The employee performs services in Ohio and either the headquar ters, or, if no headquarters exists, the place from which the service is directed or controlled, is in Ohio; OR ●The employee is a resident of and performs some ser vices in Ohio, and the headquarters or the place from which the service is directed or controlled is not in a state where part of the service is performed. Column B: Enter the total compensation paid everywhere during the tax year.

Line 3 - Sales Factor

The sales factor is the ratio of: Total sales in Ohio Total sales everywhere "Sales" includes gross business receipts such as:

●Receipts from the sale of real property, tangible personal pr operty, or services; ●Receipts from rents and royalties from real and tang ible personal property; OR ●Receipts from the transfer of or the right to use in tellectual property such as trademarks, trade names, patents, and copyrights. "Sales" does not include:

●Interest and dividends; ●Receipts from the transfer of intangible property other than tr ademarks, trade names, patents, copyrights, or other similar intellectual property; ●Receipts from the transfer of real or tangible personal pr operty that is either a capital asset or an Internal Revenue Code section 1231 asset; AND ●Receipts from sales to certain public utilities, insurance c ompanies, and financial institutions described in R.C. 5733.05(B)(2)(c). Note: Income amounts excluded from the sales factor may still be considered business income under Ohio law. See R.C. 5747.21(B) and 5733.05(B)(2)(c). Column A: Enter gross receipts from sales within Ohio during the tax year. Sales within Ohio include all of the following:

●Receipts from sales of tangible personal property, less r eturns and allowances, to the extent the property was received by the purchaser in Ohio; ●Receipts from services to the extent the purchaser ultima tely used or received the benefit of the services in Ohio; ●Rents and royalties from tangible personal property t o the extent the property was used in Ohio; ●Receipts from the transfer of certain intellectual pr operty to the extent the property was used in Ohio;

●Receipts from the right to use certain in tellectual property in Ohio; ●Receipts from the sale of real property located in Ohio; AND ●R ents and royalties from real property located in Ohio. Note: For tangible personal property, where the property is "received by the purchaser" is not the same as where the purchaser takes physical or legal possession. Instead, it is considered "received" where it is ultimately used by the purchaser. See R.C. 5733.05(B)(2)(c)(i) and (ii). Column B: Enter the gross receipts from sales everywhere during the tax year.

Line 4 - Ohio Apportionment Ratio

This is the Ohio apportionment ratio for this business. Use this ratio in Parts B and C to determine: ●Ohio appor tioned income; AND ●Ohio apportioned depreciation adjustments from the Ohio S chedule of Adjustments. Part B Enter only amounts that are both included in the calculation of your federal adjusted gross income and are "business income" under Ohio law. Because of differences between federal and Ohio law, some 2025 Ohio IT NRC38

Additionally, individuals cannot claim a resident credit for income earned in a state without an individual income tax. Thus, those states are not listed on form IT RC. Only Ohio full-year and part-year residents may use this form. Income earned while a nonresident of Ohio is not eligible for the Ohio resident credit but may be eligible for the nonresident credit. See pages 35-40 for the IT NRC instructions. For more information, see tax.ohio.gov/residencycredits. Column A - Income Taxed Enter the portion of your Ohio adjusted gross income (AGI) included on an income tax return for another state or the District of Columbia. This includes composite returns or returns reporting a tax enacted for purposes of complying with IRS Notice 2020-75. Amounts deducted on the Ohio Schedule of Adjustments (for example, business income and state and local tax refunds) are not included in Ohio AGI, and thus are not eligible to be included on this line. Do not enter wages, salaries, or other compensation earned in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Pennsylvania, or West Virginia while you were an Ohio resident. These amounts are not taxed by those states because of agreements they have with Ohio. Column B - Tax Paid Enter any income taxes paid for the current tax year on an income tax return for another state or the District of Columbia. This includes composite returns or returns reporting a tax enacted for purposes of complying with IRS Notice 2020-75.

●You lived in a taxing school district for any portion of the tax year; ●You received income while living in the district; AND ●Based on tha t inc ome , you have a school district income tax liability (SD 100, lines 25 or 35). If you have a tax liability for more than one school district, you will file only one SD 100. You may have a school district income tax liability even if you do not have an Ohio income tax liability. In that case, you must file both a school district income tax return and an Ohio income tax return. Note: If you lived in a taxing school district and received income, the Department recommends you file an SD 100, even if you don't have a tax liability, to avoid delinquency billings. See R.C. 5747.08. How Is the School District Income Tax Calculated? School district income tax is levied based on one of the following methods: The traditional tax base uses modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) less exemptions to calculate the school district income tax base. Traditional filers must complete lines 22-28 on the SD 100. The earned income tax base is based on the taxpayer's "earned income" and must be calculated by completing lines 29-38 on the SD 100. "Earned income" includes only the following items to the extent they are included in MAGI: ●Employee compensation such as wages, salaries and tips; AND ●Self-employment income from sole proprietorships and partnerships. "Earned income" does not include items such as retirement income, interest, dividends, capital gains, and unemployment benefits. For more information, see "What is Modified Adjusted Gross Income?" on page 8 and the worksheet on page 40. See R.C. 5748.01(E)(1). How Do I Determine If I'm a Resident of a School District? You are a resident of a school district if your primary residence is in that district. Your voter registration, driver's license, and vehicle registration can help determine your primary residence. If you lived in Ohio for any portion of the year, you were a resident of at least one school district. For information on how to determine your school district, see page 49. See also R.C. 5748.01(F)(1). How Do I Complete the Schedule of School District Residency? Complete the schedule to provide school district residency information for the entire tax year, including any dates you lived outside Ohio or in a non-taxing school district. Use 9999 as the school district number for any portion of the year you were a nonresident of Ohio. You may need more than one entry for the same period of time if your and your spouse's dates of residency do 56 2025 Ohio School Districts / SD 100

2025 Ohio SD 100 not match and you are filing jointly. The Department provides a tool to calculate your "days as resident" and "residency factor" at tax.ohio.gov/SDresidency. What If I Lived in More Than One School District? You will file a single SD 100 regardless of how many school districts in which you resided. Complete the Schedule of School District Residency on page 1. Page 3 of the return has space to report two traditional base districts and two earned income base districts. If you resided in more than two districts of either base, complete additional copies of page 3. Determining Your Income Ohio's school district income tax is levied on the portion of taxable income received by an individual while a resident of the taxing district. For both tax bases, if you know the exact amounts of income/adjustments you received or made in each district, you should specifically match up those amounts to the proper school district. However, if you do not know the exact amounts, you may prorate your income and/or adjustments by multiplying the amounts by the residency factor(s) on page 1 of the return for each school district you resided in. For more information and examples, see pages 59-61. What If My Employer Withheld School District Tax in Error? You must file an SD 100 to request a refund of the erroneous withholding. All of your school district withholding must be reported on a single Schedule of School District Withholding and combined on line 11 of the SD 100. The total withholding will be applied toward any tax liability you have on line 10. If you do not have a tax liability, the erroneous withholding will be refunded to you. Additionally, you should file a new IT 4 with your employer to report your current school district of residence. For more information, see tax.ohio.gov/schooldistrict.

Calculating Your Income Received While a Part-Year Resident of a School District Ohio's school district income tax is levied on the portion of taxable income received by a taxpayer while a resident of the taxing district. Ohio law does not specify how to calculate the portion of income received while a resident of a school district. If you can specifically identify the exact amount of income and deductions you received/incurred in a school district, then you should report those exact amounts on the appropriate schedule on page 3. However, many taxpayers are unable to identify where each item of income was received or how to allocate deductions that are not tied to specific events. In these situations where specific identification is not available, you should prorate your income and deductions based on how long you resided in the district. Important: This guidance assumes that if you are filing jointly, you and your spouse have the same dates of residency on your Schedule of School District Residency. If you are filing jointly but your and your spouse's dates of residency do not match, see tax. ohio.gov/schooldistrict for additional guidance. Traditional Tax Based Districts For traditional tax base districts, "taxable income" is defined as modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) less exemptions, which is calculated on line 5 of the SD 100. On line 22, you should enter only the portion of line 5 that was received while a resident of the district. If you can specifically identify the different items that make up your line 5 amount, and you know when those amounts were received, you should enter the net portion of those amounts received while you were a resident of the district. If you cannot specifically identify the amounts, you can prorate by multiplying line 5 of the SD 100 by the residency factor calculated on page 1 for the school district. See Example 1 below. Example 1 - Traditional Tax Base Hannah moved into a traditional tax base school district on September 1st. She determines her resi - dency factor as 0.3342. Her MAGI less exemptions (SD 100, line 5) is $65,000. However, she isn't able to specifically identify the portion of that amount that was received while she was a resident of the school Guidance for Part-Year Residents of a School District

2025 Ohio SD 100 district. So, Hannah multiplies her line 5 amount by her residency factor for the school district: $65,000 X 0.3342 = $21,723 Hannah enters $21,723 as her resident portion of MAGI less exemptions on line 22 of her SD 100. See the Traditional Tax Base Schedule below. Earned Income Tax Based Districts For earned income tax base districts, "taxable in - come" is defined as compensation (wages, salaries, tips, etc.) and net earnings from self-employment to the extent included in modified adjusted gross income (MAGI). You should enter only the portion of these amounts received while a resident of the district. If you can specifically identify the wages and net self-employment you received while a resident of the district, you should enter those amounts on lines 29 and 30, respectively. Also, if you can specifically identify the different items that make up your line 3 amount, and you know when those amounts were received, you should enter the net portion of those amounts received while you were a resident of the district on line 32. If you cannot specifically identify these amounts, you can prorate by multiplying the total figure by the residency factor calculated on page 1 for the school district. See Example 2 below. Example 2 - Earned Income Tax Base Eric and Angela moved into an earned income tax base school district on June 1st. They determine their residency factor as 0.5863 and their MAGI as $166,000. Eric changed jobs when he moved so he can specifically identify his wages earned as a resident to be $58,000 and enters this amount on line 29. Angela has $89,000 of self-employment income for the entire year but she isn't sure how to determine what portion was received while she was a resident of the school district. So, she multiplies her self-employment income by her residency factor for the school district and enters the result on line 30: $89,000 X 0.5863 = $52,181 Next, they determine which portions of the other amounts included in their MAGI were received or incurred as residents. They claim $9,000 in deductions on line 10 of their federal return. They are unable to identify when these deductions were incurred so they prorate this amount also by using their residency factor: $9,000 X 0.5863 = $5,277 They claim an Ohio deduction of $4,000 for contributions to a 529 account. However, they can specifically identify that these contributions took place in March, before moving into the taxing school district, so they don't prorate the amount. Using these specifically identified and prorated figures, they determine their resident portion of MAGI and enter the amount on line 32: $58,000 + $52,181 - $5,277 = $104,904 See their Earned Income Tax Base Schedule on page 61.

Ohio Nonresident Statement

Ohio law presumes all individuals who meet certain required criteria can establish a presumption that they were a nonresident for the tax year. Once an individual establishes this nonresident presumption, the Department cannot later determine the individual was an Ohio resident for income tax purposes for the tax year. Note: If you moved into or out of Ohio during the tax year (i.e., you were a part-year resident), you are not eligible for the Ohio nonresident presumption. How Do I Claim Ohio's Nonresident Presumption? Individuals who meet the required criteria can claim Ohio's nonresident presumption by checking the Ohio Nonresident Statement box on form IT 10 or IT 1040. If both taxpayers on a joint return wish to establish this presumption, both boxes must be checked. Note: Beginning with tax year 2025, individuals must file form IT 10 or 1040 to claim Ohio's nonresident presumption. When Must I Claim Ohio's Nonresident Presumption? Individuals who meet the required criteria must timely claim Ohio's nonresident presumption for each tax year no later than the 15th day of the 10th month following the close of their tax year. For most taxpayers, this will be October 15th. The deadline to claim Ohio's nonresident presumption does not change the due date of form IT 10 or IT 1040. If you do not have an extension to file, your return is still due on the normal due date of the return, typically April 15th. Note: The nonresident presumption only applies to the tax year for which it is claimed; it does not cover past or future years. See R.C. 5747.24(B)(2). What Are the "Required Criteria" to Claim Ohio's Nonresident Presumption? Only individuals who meet the following criteria are eligible for Ohio's nonresident presumption: (1) Contact Periods: You had no more than 212 contact periods in Ohio. For the definition of a "contact period, " see page 13. (2) Non-Ohio Abode: You had an abode outside of Ohio for which you did not claim depreciation during the tax year. This does not include a vacation home, rental, or other income-generating property. (3) Ohio Identification: You did not hold an Ohio driver's license or Ohio state ID card. To meet this requirement, you must surrender your Ohio license or ID card prior to the beginning of the tax year to a bureau or department of motor vehicles of any state. (4) Ohio Property Tax Reductions: You did not receive the Ohio homestead property tax exemption or the owner-occupied tax reduction. (5) Ohio In-State Tuition: The individual claiming the Ohio nonresident presumption did not receive in-state tuition at an Ohio college, university, branch campus, community college, or technical college. For more information, see page 13, or tax.ohio.gov/ residencycredits. See also R.C. 5747.24(B)(1).

Ohio Schedule IT NOL

Ohio does not have its own net operating loss (NOL) carryback deduction. However, an NOL carryback can sometimes be claimed in Ohio for the same tax years claimed on your federal return. Such carrybacks are limited by your Ohio depreciation add-back. Individuals must use Schedule IT NOL and file an amended IT 1040 for each carryback year to claim an NOL carryback. Important: When carrying back an NOL, you cannot claim the Ohio depreciation deduction on the Ohio Schedule of Adjustments. See page 22 for more information. Section I - NOL Carryback Calculation

Line 2 - Federal NOL Amount

Enter your federal NOL amount for the year in which the NOL occurred. For tax years 2023 and prior, use federal form 1045, Schedule A, line 24. For tax year 2024 and forward, use federal form 172, line 24.

Line 3 - Ohio Depreciation Add-Back

Enter your Internal Revenue Code 168(k) and 179 depreciation expense add-back reported on your Ohio Schedule of Adjustments for the year of the NOL.

Line 6 - Federal Adjusted Gross Income After the

Carryback Enter your amended federal AGI from your federal amended return or form 1045, line 11.

Line 7 - Available Carryback

Column A: Enter the amount from line 4. All other columns: Enter the amount from line 11 of the previous column.

Line 9 - Ohio NOL Adjustment

For each respective tax year, you must enter the amount calculated on line 9 of the IT NOL as an addition on the following line of the Ohio Schedule of Adjustments (formerly Ohio Schedule A):

●For tax years 2016-2022, use line 9; ●For tax year 2023, use line 10; ●For tax years 2024 and forward, use line 11. NOLs and Ohio's Depreciation Adjustment Ohio's "deduction of prior year 168(k) and 179 depreciation add-backs, " reported on the Ohio Schedule of Adjustments (formerly Ohio Schedule A), cannot be claimed in any tax year with a federal NOL, NOL carryback, or NOL carryforward. When filing your amended returns to report an NOL and/or NOL carryback, you must remove any such amounts from your Ohio Schedule of Adjustments (formerly Ohio Schedule A). These deductions must be carried forward to the next year that does not report an NOL, NOL carryback, or NOL carryforward. For more information, see pages 8-9 and the FAQs at 2025 Ohio Schedule IT NOL 63
