Can I submit the amount paid in 2015 for our Ohio taxes as a credit in 2016 (Ohio taxes)?

We owed the state over $600 in 2015, therefore I want to see if I can use that amount as a credit in 2016 for our Ohio taxes

No, you can't use it as a credit on OH taxes, but you may be able to deduct the $600 as a state tax deduction if you paid it in 2016.

To do so:

  1. Go to Deductions & Credits. 

  2. Select I'll choose what I work on. 

  3. Go to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid. 

  4. Select Start or Update by Other Income Taxes

  5. Go to Other Income Taxes Paid in 2016.
