Enter an Ohio School District for Tax Calculation

An employee must complete and submit a Withholding Exemption Certificate that identifies their school district if:

  • You hired them as a new employee in Ohio.

  • They moved into a taxable school district.

Use the Calculation Cards task to update their Tax Withholding card with this school district tax info.

Note:

Not all school districts use allowances. Some use flat rates.

The payroll process checks these tax components in this order to determine an employee's Ohio school district.

  1. OH state tax component on the Tax Withholding card based on the resident tax address

  2. OH county tax component

  3. OH city tax component

You don't enter allowances at the school district level.

To update the tax card:

  1. From My Click Groups, click Payroll.

  2. Click Calculation Cards.

  3. Search for the employee, and open their Tax Withholding card for editing.

  4. In Regional, open the Ohio component for editing.

  5. In State Tax Information, select the school district of residence.

    If the task finds multiple valid school districts, it lists them in this order.

    1. The person's US resident tax address

    2. The person's US home address

  6. If you don't see the school district you want:

    1. Click Cancel to return to the Tax Withholding card.

    2. In Regional, open the Ohio city component for editing.

      Click Add to add it if it doesn't exist.

    3. Select the school district.
  7. If you still don't see the desired school district, check your Ohio tax card configuration.
