                     A Message From the Ohio Tax Commissioner 

Dear Ohio Taxpayers, 
Protecting your tax dollars, as well as ensuring the security of your personal identifi cation and tax information, remain our  
top priority in these times of rampant crime occurring across the Internet. The incidence of stolen personal identification 
information remains high, as does the attempt to steal tax refunds by the fi ling of fraudulent tax returns. 
Since 2014, when this surge of cyber-crime began, we have blocked more than 420,000 attempts to steal tax refunds, 
that in total exceed a half-billion dollars. We cannot and will not let down our guard. 
Ohio’s use of an Identity Confi rmation Quiz to help verify the legitimacy of a refund request, along with a heightened 
vigilance among taxpayers, tax preparers, the fi nancial community, the IRS and our staff, has coalesced into a formidable  
barrier to repel cyber-criminals. 
We have continued to fine-tune our review of personal income tax returns, which has reduced the number of Ohioans 
who need to take the I.D. quiz to confi rm their identity before receiving a tax refund. Regardless of whether you’re 
directed to take the quiz or not, remember that fi ling your return electronically is the fastest way to get your refund. 
If you do fi le online, and request direct deposit of your refund, the money should be in your bank account within 15 
business days. 
There are a couple other changes this year that I’d like to mention. The business income deduction for 2016 has been 
increased to 100% of the fi rst $250,000 of net business income from “pass-through” businesses or sole proprietorships. 
Income over that amount from these businesses will remain subject to a fl at 3% tax rate. 
Also new this year, Ohio has added a deduction for contributions to Ohio’s STABLE account to help taxpayers who are 
caring for a disabled child or other designated disabled benefi ciary. This deduction allows taxpayers to reduce their 
taxable gross income by up to $2,000 per benefi ciary per year. 
I’d like to close by thanking all Ohio taxpayers for their time and diligence in fi ling their annual state income tax return. I 
trust that this instruction booklet will provide all the information you need to complete your return. If you have additional 
questions, however, please visit our Web site at tax.ohio.gov or call 1-800-282-1780 for taxpayer assistance. 
Respectfully, 

Joe W. Testa 
Ohio Tax Commissioner 

                                                    Our Mission

               and by fairly applying the tax law." 

               The tax commissioner is looking for ideas on how the Ohio Department of Taxation can
