Is TurboTax broken with the Ohio Form 37 for RITA? Also, why am I filling out a RITA form here, and then I have to re-enter my information on their site?

It asks for corrections but doesn't tell me where on the form I'm correcting. Just a nondescript column or block that applies to 5 types of information.

According to the Forms availability lookup tool, Ohio municipal tax return 37 is available for preparation and mail using TurboTax Online/Desktop, but isn't supported for e-file in the software. If you want to mail your Form 37, you can continue completing it in TurboTax; or if you would like to file it on the Ohio RITA website, you can continue to enter it online.

If you need help preparing and filing your RITA return, please see the 2025 instructions

 

If you need to look at the Form's columns and labels in full, please see the 2025 Form 37 PDF.

Q. Why am I filling out a RITA form here, and then I have to re-enter my information on their site?

A. You don't do both.  You make a choice of which way you want to do it.  If you have TurboTax (TT) do it, you will have to print and mail your return.  It can not be e-filed.  For that reason, many people don't use TT and file at the RITA site.

 

TurboTax (TT) does not automatically prepare a city return, you must initiate it. At the screen, in the Ohio program, titled 
 "A few things before we wrap up your state taxes"
      scroll down to Ohio City taxes. 
Or, later
"Your 2025 Ohio Taxes are ready for us to check"

    -Scroll down to Ohio City taxes. 

TT cannot e-file an Ohio City or RITA return. It must be printed and mailed.

I actually find it easier to fill out a city return by hand or at the city, CCA or RITA web site, than to use TT. Things don't happen automatically and you need to know what you’re doing. The actual  RITA/city forms are easier to follow than the TT interview..

Also why is RITA Form 37 no longer in the Desltop Deluxe version    Does that make sense?

I have Desktop Deluxe. RITA is in the same place as usual.

      scroll down to Ohio City taxes. 

After you press start (or update), RITA will be a choice
