For corporate and personal income tax purposes, the Ohio Department of Taxation (department) issued a release discussing new "W-2 Upload Feature" that allows payroll providers and employers to submit W-2 data files to the department through Ohio Business Gateway (Gateway). The department clarified that employers submitting W-2s through the Gateway will not be required to submit a separate paper Ohio IT 3, since the W-2 Upload Feature creates an IT 3 from the W- 2 information submitted.
The department has updated its W-2 Information Page to include FAQs and a tutorial containing a step by step guide on how to complete a W-2 data upload transaction on the Gateway. (Release, Ohio Department of Taxation, January 10, 2020.)
