Q. I want to be sure I am doing the correct things. Can you advise?
You could try asking that question directly to ODT (Ohio dept. of Taxation).

Please let us know what you're told.
You say this has been going on for several years. Did you file OH returns in the past? I earlier suggested you file back year returns for refunds. If you previously filed, you'll need to file amended returns instead.
