2024 Ohio Form 1040

What Is Ohio Form IT-1040?

Ohio IT-1040 is the form used by full-year residents to file their state income tax return. The purpose of Form IT-1040 is to determine your tax liability for the state of Ohio. Part-year resident and nonresident filers will also complete Ohio Form IT-1040. Part-year residents must attach Ohio Form IT RC if claiming a credit for taxes paid to another state. Nonresidents must attach Ohio Form IT NRC to claim the nonresident credit for income not subject to Ohio tax.

Read the What Is my Ohio Residency Status section of the IT-1040 instructions book to help determine if you should file as a resident, part-year resident, or nonresident for tax year 2024.

Who Must File Ohio Form IT-1040?

In Ohio, all residents, part-year residents, and nonresidents with Ohio-sourced income are generally required to file an individual income tax return using Form IT-1040. Ohio-sourced income includes wages earned in Ohio, lottery or casino winnings, income from Ohio property, and income from businesses operating in the state. Full-year nonresidents living in reciprocal states (Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Michigan, or Pennsylvania) are exempt from filing if their only Ohio-sourced income is wages.

Certain exceptions exist where individuals may not need to file an Ohio income tax return. You are exempt if your Ohio adjusted gross income is less than or equal to $0, your exemption amount equals or exceeds your Ohio adjusted gross income, or your applicable credits (such as the senior citizen credit) equal or surpass your income tax liability. Despite these exceptions, if you have a school district income tax liability, you are still required to file the Ohio IT 1040.
