There are numerous items that are not automatically pulled in by TaxSlayer from federal taxes to the Ohio return.  The first link below will give you a good idea of the sorts of things that are not automatic.

I've created a YouTube channel (here) with a number of videos on Ohio Income Tax topics
 
Regarding training, I've put together several FAQs for my team related to Ohio: Feel free to use any/all of this.  I hope it's  of some help.  ​
  • Ohio Income Tax return adders:  These are items which do not get pulled over from the federal return and/or areas where additional attention is needed


Ohio School District Income tax:  Also not automatic.  Can be complicated and messy.   Affects people who live in a "taxing school district".  Maybe 5-10% of school districts are taxing school districts in Ohio.  My best 2 words to describe this tax and how it is implemented are "train wreck".  Way too much time and effort are spent in this area.
  • How to get Ohio transcripts and withholding information:  As the name implies, this FAQ shows how to go about obtaining transcripts from Ohio, to allow one to file a state return if missing W2/1099.
  • One more FAQ that is simply informational, Ohio Local/City tax describes how local taxes work in Ohio.  VITA does not file city taxes but our volunteers and clients often wish to understand how this mechanism works.

Please note: I, Mary Meador, AM NOT a certified accountant or tax law expert. I volunteer with VITA providing free tax preparation for individuals and families whose income is less than $66,000 a year. We deal with simple returns at our sites.  I cannot guarantee the accuracy of all the information on this site as tax laws change and I may not have a clear understanding of complicated issues. I am trying to provide basic tax preparation information for our volunteers to get started--remember Publication 4012 is your go-to resource for questions, as well as irs.gov and Publication 17.  I hope you find this information useful and easy to understand. Thanks for being a VITA/TCE volunteer!
