Ohio municipal income tax & the CAT
Ohio is one of the few states where local municipal income tax is a genuine bookkeeping burden - most cities levy their own income tax, and many are administered through RITA or the CCA. Businesses with taxable gross receipts above $3 million may also owe the state Commercial Activity Tax (CAT). We keep your records organized so municipal filings and any CAT obligation are straightforward rather than stressful.
