Did you know Ohio employers are now required to file state and school district income taxes online?

Keeping up with tax-filing requirements can be a full-time job. I know because it is my job!

That's why it's important that I pass this information onto you...

On November 18, 2014, Joseph Testa, Tax Commissioner of the Ohio Department of Taxation, released this announcement regarding an electronic filing requirement change:

Effective January 1, 2015, employers are "required to file and remit payment for state and school district income tax withholding returns using the Ohio Business Gateway."

Ohio Business Gateway is an online tool for e-filings, payments, and "all things business" in Ohio. You can register or log-in by visiting http://business.ohio.gov/efiling/transactions/withholding.
