Turbo tax is asking to enter a school district number from a SD 100ES form. I did not receive this form.

Yes, you can find your school district code number based on where you live in Ohio.

The Ohio tax return requires a school district number even when you don't live in a community that has a school district tax.

The Ohio Department of Taxation provides a lookup tool that will find your school district code by entering your nine digit zip code.

To access Ohio's lookup tool visit https://thefinder.tax.ohio.gov/StreamlineSalesTaxWeb/ZipLookup/LookupByZip.aspx?taxType=taxsummary

Full-year non-resident taxpayers should use 9999 for their school district code.

Hope the above information Helps!..

I looked up my OH 4-digit school district code.  It, however, is not accepted by Turbo Tax.

Use this link to verify you school district code.  You can use just the 5 digit zip code, but the results will give you multiple possible codes.   If you enter your 5 digit zip and the +4digits, you will get an accurate school district code.  The page will show your school district code and tax rate which you can verify this information on your tax return.  If you get an error, please let us know your school district and what the error message is.   @Justin1990

My school district is not listed and the code on the state site does not work. It won’t let me file. Anybody know how to fix this?

My school district number is 7602 (Canton, Ohio) and I’m getting the same error message... it’s extremely frustrating. I’ve already looked up my code with the tool and it won’t accept it, it just keeps saying it’s a no taxable school district- which it is not taxable. Please help!

 Same issue here. My school district is 2507. Error keeps saying that it isn't a taxing district. I can't move forward with that correct code or leave it blank either.

I got it fixed! On the left side of the screen I was able to select tools and then delete the form from my state return and then it went right through! Hope this helps.

So maybe you can answer this, I had the same issue but as I have been getting ticked off, I am not sure what I did and now it to the point I have to print the sheet off and mail it. I tried to go back into the system but Turbo will not let me back into my state return. So do I have to mail it now? My SD is apparently not listed and I read that deleting that form will allow you to E-file which is what I want to do. Is my Turbo forms now locked out?

You can get back into your return by going to TAX HOME and then scroll down click YOUR TAX RETURN & DOCUMENTS, and then click ADD A STATE (not really adding anything). You will then be back into your tax return and can see any errors and fix them. But if you efile and you need to make changes, you will need to amend.

I am having this same issue but do not see "tools" on the left side, any other ideas about how to get past this?

If you do not see Tools in the black bar on the left of your screen, perhaps you are using the CD/Download version of TurboTax.

 

To delete an individual form, please follow these steps:

 

TurboTax Online

  1. While in your return, click on Tax Tools > Tools (in the black bar at the side of your screen).  
  2. In the Tools Center, under Other helpful links click on Delete a form.
  3. Click Delete next to the form you want to delete and follow the onscreen instructions. 
  4. Once you have finished deleting the desired form(s) click the Continue with My Return box (in the lower right of your screen).

TurboTax CD/Download

  1. Go into Forms Mode by clicking on the Forms icon in the top right of the blue bar
  2. In the Forms in My Return list on the left, click on the form you wish to open and delete.
  3. Click on the Delete Form box at the bottom of the screen.
  4. To return to the interview, click on the Step-By-Step icon in the top right of the blue bar.

So I look up my school district number and I get it but TurboTax says school district number is not a taxing  school district.

You may not have a filing requirement if you are not a resident of a taxing school district.  
 

Please see the link below to determine if you are subject to the school district tax or not.

 

Ohio school district income tax applicability

 

If you are subject to the school district income tax, I would recommend reviewing your input in the entire state interview section to ensure the residency period has been answered correctly.  

  1. Continue through the screens in Ohio until you see the screen titled A few things before we wrap up your state taxes.
  2. Scroll down and select Revisit to the right of School district taxes.
  3. On the next screen titled Your school district taxes, select Edit to the right of the applicable district number.
  4.  Continue to review your information on the screens until you see the screen titled Choose the Residency for School District #.  Review your information here to ensure it is marked as "lived in school district number the ENTIRE year."
