Ohio
Employee Obligations (Which Returns YOU Must File)
If you physically work in Ohio, file a nonresident Ohio return (tax rate: Flat 2.75% (2026) on income over approximately $26,050). Then file your Minnesota return and claim the Schedule M1CR credit so you don't get taxed twice on the same income.
Employer Obligations (What Your Employer Must Withhold & Remit)
Register for withholding and unemployment from day 1. Must register with each municipality — there are nearly 600 taxing cities. Workers' comp is a monopolistic state. Unemployment applies to the first $9,000 of wages.
City & Local Income Taxes (Extra Filings Beyond the State Return)
Ohio has the most city income taxes in the country with nearly 600 cities charging 1% to 2.75%. Nonresidents pay the same rate as residents. Columbus 2.5%, Cleveland 2.5%, Cincinnati 1.8%, Toledo 2.5%, Akron 2.5%, Youngstown 2.75%. Separate city returns are required (many processed via RITA). School district taxes are resident-only. The M1CR credit does NOT cover city taxes.
