BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF OHIO:

       Section 1. That sections 5747.01, 5747.24, and 5748.01 of the 6
Revised Code be amended to read as follows:7

       Sec. 5747.01.  Except as otherwise expressly provided or8
clearly appearing from the context, any term used in this chapter 9
that is not otherwise defined in this section has the same meaning 10
as when used in a comparable context in the laws of the United11
States relating to federal income taxes or if not used in a 12
comparable context in those laws, has the same meaning as in 13
section 5733.40 of the Revised Code. Any reference in this chapter 14
to the Internal Revenue Code includes other laws of the United 15
States relating to federal income taxes.16

       As used in this chapter:17

       (A) "Adjusted gross income" or "Ohio adjusted gross income"18
means federal adjusted gross income, as defined and used in the19
Internal Revenue Code, adjusted as provided in this section:20

       (1) Add interest or dividends on obligations or securities of 21
any state or of any political subdivision or authority of any22
state, other than this state and its subdivisions and authorities.23

       (2) Add interest or dividends on obligations of any24
authority, commission, instrumentality, territory, or possession25
of the United States to the extent that the interest or dividends26
are exempt from federal income taxes but not from state income27
taxes.28

       (3) Deduct interest or dividends on obligations of the United 29
States and its territories and possessions or of any authority, 30
commission, or instrumentality of the United States to the extent31
that the interest or dividends are included in federal adjusted 32
gross income but exempt from state income taxes under the laws of 33
the United States.34

       (4) Deduct disability and survivor's benefits to the extent35
included in federal adjusted gross income.36

       (5) Deduct benefits under Title II of the Social Security Act 37
and tier 1 railroad retirement benefits to the extent included in 38
federal adjusted gross income under section 86 of the Internal39
Revenue Code.40

       (6) In the case of a taxpayer who is a beneficiary of a trust 41
that makes an accumulation distribution as defined in section 665 42
of the Internal Revenue Code, add, for the beneficiary's taxable 43
years beginning before 2002, the portion, if any, of such 44
distribution that does not exceed the undistributed net income of 45
the trust for the three taxable years preceding the taxable year 46
in which the distribution is made to the extent that the portion 47
was not included in the trust's taxable income for any of the 48
trust's taxable years beginning in 2002 or thereafter.49
"Undistributed net income of a trust" means the taxable income of50
the trust increased by (a)(i) the additions to adjusted gross51
income required under division (A) of this section and (ii) the52
personal exemptions allowed to the trust pursuant to section53
642(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, and decreased by (b)(i) the54
deductions to adjusted gross income required under division (A) of55
this section, (ii) the amount of federal income taxes attributable56
to such income, and (iii) the amount of taxable income that has57
been included in the adjusted gross income of a beneficiary by58
reason of a prior accumulation distribution. Any undistributed net59
income included in the adjusted gross income of a beneficiary60
shall reduce the undistributed net income of the trust commencing61
with the earliest years of the accumulation period.62

       (7) Deduct the amount of wages and salaries, if any, not63
otherwise allowable as a deduction but that would have been64
allowable as a deduction in computing federal adjusted gross65
income for the taxable year, had the targeted jobs credit allowed66
and determined under sections 38, 51, and 52 of the Internal67
Revenue Code not been in effect.68

       (8) Deduct any interest or interest equivalent on public69
obligations and purchase obligations to the extent that the70
interest or interest equivalent is included in federal adjusted71
gross income.72

       (9) Add any loss or deduct any gain resulting from the sale,73
exchange, or other disposition of public obligations to the extent74
that the loss has been deducted or the gain has been included in75
computing federal adjusted gross income.76

5747.70 of the Revised Code, related to contributions to variable78
college savings program accounts made or tuition units purchased79
pursuant to Chapter 3334. of the Revised Code.80

       (11)(a) Deduct, to the extent not otherwise allowable as a81
deduction or exclusion in computing federal or Ohio adjusted gross82
income for the taxable year, the amount the taxpayer paid during83
the taxable year for medical care insurance and qualified84
long-term care insurance for the taxpayer, the taxpayer's spouse,85
and dependents. No deduction for medical care insurance under86
division (A)(11) of this section shall be allowed either to any87
taxpayer who is eligible to participate in any subsidized health88
plan maintained by any employer of the taxpayer or of the89
taxpayer's spouse, or to any taxpayer who is entitled to, or on90
application would be entitled to, benefits under part A of Title91
XVIII of the "Social Security Act," 49 Stat. 620 (1935), 42 U.S.C.92
301, as amended. For the purposes of division (A)(11)(a) of this93
section, "subsidized health plan" means a health plan for which94
the employer pays any portion of the plan's cost. The deduction95
allowed under division (A)(11)(a) of this section shall be the net96

related insurance premium dividends received during the taxable98
year.99

       (b) Deduct, to the extent not otherwise deducted or excluded100
in computing federal or Ohio adjusted gross income during the101
taxable year, the amount the taxpayer paid during the taxable102
year, not compensated for by any insurance or otherwise, for103
medical care of the taxpayer, the taxpayer's spouse, and104
dependents, to the extent the expenses exceed seven and one-half105
per cent of the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income.106

       (c) For purposes of division (A)(11) of this section,107
"medical care" has the meaning given in section 213 of the108
Internal Revenue Code, subject to the special rules, limitations,109
and exclusions set forth therein, and "qualified long-term care"110
has the same meaning given in section 7702(B)(b)B(c) of the 111
Internal Revenue Code.112

       (12)(a) Deduct any amount included in federal adjusted gross113
income solely because the amount represents a reimbursement or114
refund of expenses that in any year the taxpayer had deducted as115
an itemized deduction pursuant to section 63 of the Internal116
Revenue Code and applicable United States department of the117
treasury regulations. The deduction otherwise allowed under118
division (A)(12)(a) of this section shall be reduced to the extent119
the reimbursement is attributable to an amount the taxpayer120
deducted under this section in any taxable year.121

       (b) Add any amount not otherwise included in Ohio adjusted122
gross income for any taxable year to the extent that the amount is123
attributable to the recovery during the taxable year of any amount124
deducted or excluded in computing federal or Ohio adjusted gross125
income in any taxable year.126

       (13) Deduct any portion of the deduction described in section 127
1341(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, for repaying previously 128
reported income received under a claim of right, that meets both 129
of the following requirements:130

       (a) It is allowable for repayment of an item that was131
included in the taxpayer's adjusted gross income for a prior132
taxable year and did not qualify for a credit under division (A)133
or (B) of section 5747.05 of the Revised Code for that year;134

       (b) It does not otherwise reduce the taxpayer's adjusted135
gross income for the current or any other taxable year.136

       (14) Deduct an amount equal to the deposits made to, and net137
investment earnings of, a medical savings account during the138
taxable year, in accordance with section 3924.66 of the Revised139
Code. The deduction allowed by division (A)(14) of this section140
does not apply to medical savings account deposits and earnings141
otherwise deducted or excluded for the current or any other142
taxable year from the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income.143

       (15)(a) Add an amount equal to the funds withdrawn from a144
medical savings account during the taxable year, and the net145
investment earnings on those funds, when the funds withdrawn were146
used for any purpose other than to reimburse an account holder147
for, or to pay, eligible medical expenses, in accordance with148
section 3924.66 of the Revised Code;149

       (b) Add the amounts distributed from a medical savings150
account under division (A)(2) of section 3924.68 of the Revised151
Code during the taxable year.152

5747.059 of the Revised Code to the extent that such amount154
satisfies either of the following:155

       (a) The amount was deducted or excluded from the computation156
of the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income as required to be157
reported for the taxpayer's taxable year under the Internal158
Revenue Code;159

       (b) The amount resulted in a reduction of the taxpayer's160
federal adjusted gross income as required to be reported for any161
of the taxpayer's taxable years under the Internal Revenue Code.162

       (17) Deduct the amount contributed by the taxpayer to an163
individual development account program established by a county164
department of job and family services pursuant to sections 329.11165
to 329.14 of the Revised Code for the purpose of matching funds166
deposited by program participants. On request of the tax167
commissioner, the taxpayer shall provide any information that, in168
the tax commissioner's opinion, is necessary to establish the169
amount deducted under division (A)(17) of this section.170

       (18) Beginning in taxable year 2001 but not for any taxable 171
year beginning after December 31, 2005, if the taxpayer is married172
and files a joint return and the combined federal adjusted gross 173
income of the taxpayer and the taxpayer's spouse for the taxable 174
year does not exceed one hundred thousand dollars, or if the 175
taxpayer is single and has a federal adjusted gross income for the176
taxable year not exceeding fifty thousand dollars, deduct amounts 177
paid during the taxable year for qualified tuition and fees paid 178
to an eligible institution for the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 179
spouse, or any dependent of the taxpayer, who is a resident of 180
this state and is enrolled in or attending a program that181
culminates in a degree or diploma at an eligible institution. The 182
deduction may be claimed only to the extent that qualified tuition 183
and fees are not otherwise deducted or excluded for any taxable 184
year from federal or Ohio adjusted gross income. The deduction may 185
not be claimed for educational expenses for which the taxpayer 186
claims a credit under section 5747.27 of the Revised Code.187

       (19) Add any reimbursement received during the taxable year188
of any amount the taxpayer deducted under division (A)(18) of this189
section in any previous taxable year to the extent the amount is190
not otherwise included in Ohio adjusted gross income.191

       (20)(a)(i) Add five-sixths of the amount of depreciation192
expense allowed by subsection (k) of section 168 of the Internal193
Revenue Code, including the taxpayer's proportionate or194
distributive share of the amount of depreciation expense allowed195
by that subsection to a pass-through entity in which the taxpayer196
has a direct or indirect ownership interest.197

       (ii) Add five-sixths of the amount of qualifying section 179 198
depreciation expense, including a person's proportionate or 199
distributive share of the amount of qualifying section 179 200

the person has a direct or indirect ownership. For the purposes of 202
this division, "qualifying section 179 depreciation expense" means 203
the difference between (I) the amount of depreciation expense 204

section 179 of the Internal Revenue Code as that section existed 208
on December 31, 2002.209

       The tax commissioner, under procedures established by the 210

as the nonbusiness income or loss generated by the property for220
the purpose of determining the credit under division (A) of221
section 5747.05 of the Revised Code. Otherwise, the add-back shall 222
be apportioned, subject to one or more of the four alternative 223
methods of apportionment enumerated in section 5747.21 of the 224
Revised Code.225

       (d) For the purposes of division (A) of this section, net 226

five-sixths of the allowance of any net operating loss deduction 228
carryback or carryforward to the taxable year to the extent such 229
loss resulted from depreciation allowed by section 168(k) of the 230
Internal Revenue Code and by the qualifying section 179 231
depreciation expense amount.232

       (21)(a) If the taxpayer was required to add an amount under233

to the same location. Otherwise, the add-back shall be apportioned 240
using the apportionment factors for the taxable year in which the 241
deduction is taken, subject to one or more of the four alternative 242
methods of apportionment enumerated in section 5747.21 of the 243
Revised Code.244

179 depreciation expense amount to the extent that such 248

section 5747.21 of the Revised Code may be applied in the manner686

of this section, all of the following apply:694

        (i) If the qualifying investee is a member of a qualifying695

ending immediately prior to the date on which the trust recognizes708
the qualifying trust amount, more than fifty per cent of the709
equity of a pass-through entity, then the qualifying investee and710
the other members are deemed to own the proportionate share of the711
pass-through entity's physical assets which the pass-through712
entity directly or indirectly owns on the last day of the713
pass-through entity's calendar or fiscal year ending within or714
with the last day of the qualifying investee's fiscal or calendar715

entity's calendar or fiscal year ending within or with the last729
day of the upper level pass-through entity's fiscal or calendar730
year. If the upper level pass-through entity directly and731
indirectly owns less than fifty per cent of the equity of the732
lower level pass-through entity on each day of the upper level733

pass-through entity and if, based upon clear and convincing736
evidence, complete information about the location and cost of the737
physical assets of the lower pass-through entity is not available738
to the upper level pass-through entity, then solely for purposes739
of ascertaining if a gain or loss constitutes a qualifying trust740
amount, the upper level pass-through entity shall be deemed as741
owning no equity of the lower level pass-through entity for each742
day during the upper level pass-through entity's calendar or743
fiscal year in which or with which ends the lower level744
pass-through entity's calendar or fiscal year. Nothing in division 745

representative of the estate of the deceased individual may comply858

this state for the entire taxable year. An individual can rebut872
this presumption for any portion of the taxable year only with a873
preponderance of the evidence to the contrary. An individual who874

remainder of the taxable year for which the individual does not877
provide a preponderance of the evidence to the contrary.878

       (D) An individual who during a taxable year has at least one879
hundred eighty-three contact periods in this state, which need not880
be consecutive, is presumed to be domiciled in this state for the881
entire taxable year. An individual can rebut this presumption for882
any portion of the taxable year only with clear and convincing883
evidence to the contrary. An individual who rebuts the presumption 884
