<<You are going to need to file an Idaho non-resident state income tax return reporting the income and state income taxes paid.
You will also have to file a resident Ohio state income tax return reporting the income received from the Idaho company. You will get a credit on your Ohio return for the Idaho state income taxes paid>>
But why would it work as you state above? .
If the ID company withholds ID taxes and the OP did not step foot in that state, then agreed there is a non-resident income tax form required to return the withholdings. However, why wouldn't the income be reported on the OH return (and NOT the ID return)? Doesn't your post suggest the tax is due to ID?
To me, what needs to occur is the OP submits a non-resident tax return to ID for the sole purpose of getting a refund of the withholdings. THen the income is reported to OH and taxes are paid there. There is no credit from ID on the OH tax return. Why isn't that the approach?
