Submit a tax payment through the Official Payments site. When you're on the site, select either the "Personal Income Tax Return - Filing Individually" or the "Personal Income Tax Return - Filing Jointly" option, then follow the on-screen prompts to enter and submit your payment and personal information (e.g. Payment Amount, Credit/Debit type, SSN, Tax Year, Form Type, etc). You need the following information on hand to submit your payment:
1) Ohio jurisdiction code (6446);
2) Your SSN (and your spouse's SSN if making a joint payment);
3) The tax year for your payment;
4) Your credit or debit card number and expiration date;
5) School district number (if submitting a school district income tax payment). Your payment will take effect on the date you authorize it, so you cannot select a future date nor can you reverse the action. If you reverse the payment later, you may face penalties, interest, and other fees. You will receive a confirmation number once you submit your payment, so keep this number for your tax records.
Use this payment option if you want to pay your tax payment via your credit or debit card. You will either be charged a convenience fee equal to 2.5% of your payment or $1 (whichever is greater). The Ohio state tax agency does not receive this fee. You'll see the payment as two separate entries: one for the payment and another for the convenience fee.
