Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Ohio requires you to use the same filing status that you used for your federal tax return. The instructions for Ohio Form IT 1040 say: "If you and your spouse filed a joint federal return, you must file a joint Ohio income tax return even if one or both of you are nonresidents of Ohio."


@Hal_Al, who knows much more about Ohio than I do, may have something to add.
