I live in the city of Springfield, OH however work in Union city. I did not realize until doing my taxes that Amazon is only taking out my worked-in city taxes and not my live-in city taxes. I am not being told that I owe over $1000+. When I fill out the city taxe sheet to have them take out live-in city tax, they told me hat cannot do that and i would have to go to my local agency. My local agency says they dont have to but they can and to go back to work and be persistent on submitted my city tax form. I dont want tot have to owe every year. What should I do?
Q. What should I do?
A. Make quarterly estimated payments to Springfield. It is very common that Ohio employers will only withhold for the work location city.

Springfield will give you a credit, when you file your tax return, for half the tax you paid to Union through withholding. So, you can reduce your quarterly payments by that much.
