MaryK4,
Thank you for your response. I was able to confirm that my OH local taxes were indeed withheld by my employer. I also spoke to the local OH taxing authority and they told me they had been paid in 2023 and if my 2024 W2 reflects the same, they will by paid for 2024. However there there are no refunds made on local taxes. I am able to use the over payment to seek a credit up to the same dollar amount of tax paid locally. To do so, I was once again instructed to use the dollar figure located in box 16 of my OH W2, of which there is nothing marked on my OH W2 box 16. However there is a dollar figure in box 16 of my PA W2. My local form for PA says to list the result of the OH local tax worksheet which also reference using OH W2 box 16. Are you able to suggest how I should handle this? I have run out of places that I know to ask about this, Do you have any additional suggestions or where I can seek additional tax help?
