OHIO TAX STRUCTURE<\/p>\n

<\/b><\/strong>State Income Tax

Municipal Income Tax
\n<\/b><\/strong>Ohio municipalities are able to impose a maximum 1 percent tax rate without voter approval on wages, salaries, and other compensation. This applies to local residents but also non-residents who earn income in the municipality. Rates vary with the municipality but the current tax rate for Cincinnati is 2.1 percent. Forms and information are provided by municipalities. The Ohio Department of Taxation provides an Internet directory for contacting the cities and villages in Ohio with a municipal income tax to obtain forms and information:<\/p>\n

Sales & Use Tax
\n<\/b><\/strong>Ohio imposes a 5.75 percent sales and use tax rate. Use tax applies to goods that are purchased outside of Ohio (such as Internet transactions and catalog sales) that were not taxed but were used in Ohio. Sales taxes are collected at the retail level; use taxes must be paid directly to the state. For more information or answers to specific questions, contact:<\/p>\n

Real Property Tax
\n<\/b><\/strong>Real property in all counties is appraised every six years and property values are updated in the third year following the reappraisal. The taxable value is 35 percent of true market value, and tax rates vary with the jurisdiction (municipality, township, county, and school district). Low-income senior residents may qualify for the homestead exemption. For details or answers to specific questions, contact your county auditor’s office or the treasurer\/tax collector:<\/p>\n

A low-income tax credit on a graduated scale is also available to qualifying taxpayers whose adjusted gross income falls beneath specified limits. For complete information on income taxes, contact:<\/p>\n

\n<\/b><\/strong>Property Tax Information<\/b><\/strong>
\nProperty taxes are the primary source of revenue for local governments in Indiana. The taxpayer owes the government the tax rate multiplied by the assessed value of the property. The state government collects a very small part of the property tax, at a rate of one cent per $100 assessed value. The property tax is administered on the state level by the State Board of Tax Commissioners or the Department of Local Government Finance, and on the local level by the county and township assessors. For answers to specific questions on property taxes, contact your local and county assessors or tax collectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
