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

       Section 1. That section 5747.01 of the Revised Code be 8
amended to read as follows:9

       Sec. 5747.01.  Except as otherwise expressly provided or10
clearly appearing from the context, any term used in this chapter 11
that is not otherwise defined in this section has the same meaning 12
as when used in a comparable context in the laws of the United13
States relating to federal income taxes or if not used in a 14
comparable context in those laws, has the same meaning as in 15
section 5733.40 of the Revised Code. Any reference in this chapter 16
to the Internal Revenue Code includes other laws of the United 17
States relating to federal income taxes.18

       As used in this chapter:19

       (A) "Adjusted gross income" or "Ohio adjusted gross income"20
means federal adjusted gross income, as defined and used in the21
Internal Revenue Code, adjusted as provided in this section:22

       (1) Add interest or dividends on obligations or securities of 23
any state or of any political subdivision or authority of any24
state, other than this state and its subdivisions and authorities.25

       (2) Add interest or dividends on obligations of any26
authority, commission, instrumentality, territory, or possession27
of the United States to the extent that the interest or dividends28
are exempt from federal income taxes but not from state income29
taxes.30

       (3) Deduct interest or dividends on obligations of the United 31
States and its territories and possessions or of any authority, 32
commission, or instrumentality of the United States to the extent33
that the interest or dividends are included in federal adjusted 34
gross income but exempt from state income taxes under the laws of 35
the United States.36

       (4) Deduct disability and survivor's benefits to the extent37
included in federal adjusted gross income.38

       (5) Deduct benefits under Title II of the Social Security Act 39
and tier 1 railroad retirement benefits to the extent included in 40
federal adjusted gross income under section 86 of the Internal41
Revenue Code.42

       (6) In the case of a taxpayer who is a beneficiary of a trust 43
that makes an accumulation distribution as defined in section 665 44
of the Internal Revenue Code, add, for the beneficiary's taxable 45
years beginning before 2002, the portion, if any, of such 46
distribution that does not exceed the undistributed net income of 47
the trust for the three taxable years preceding the taxable year 48
in which the distribution is made to the extent that the portion 49
was not included in the trust's taxable income for any of the 50
trust's taxable years beginning in 2002 or thereafter.51
"Undistributed net income of a trust" means the taxable income of52
the trust increased by (a)(i) the additions to adjusted gross53
income required under division (A) of this section and (ii) the54
personal exemptions allowed to the trust pursuant to section55
642(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, and decreased by (b)(i) the56
deductions to adjusted gross income required under division (A) of57
this section, (ii) the amount of federal income taxes attributable58
to such income, and (iii) the amount of taxable income that has59
been included in the adjusted gross income of a beneficiary by60
reason of a prior accumulation distribution. Any undistributed net61
income included in the adjusted gross income of a beneficiary62
shall reduce the undistributed net income of the trust commencing63
with the earliest years of the accumulation period.64

       (7) Deduct the amount of wages and salaries, if any, not65
otherwise allowable as a deduction but that would have been66
allowable as a deduction in computing federal adjusted gross67
income for the taxable year, had the targeted jobs credit allowed68
and determined under sections 38, 51, and 52 of the Internal69
Revenue Code not been in effect.70

       (8) Deduct any interest or interest equivalent on public71
obligations and purchase obligations to the extent that the72
interest or interest equivalent is included in federal adjusted73
gross income.74

       (9) Add any loss or deduct any gain resulting from the sale,75
exchange, or other disposition of public obligations to the extent76
that the loss has been deducted or the gain has been included in77
computing federal adjusted gross income.78

       (10) Deduct or add amounts, as provided under section79
5747.70 of the Revised Code, related to contributions to variable80
college savings program accounts made or tuition units purchased81
pursuant to Chapter 3334. of the Revised Code.82

       (11)(a) Deduct, to the extent not otherwise allowable as a83
deduction or exclusion in computing federal or Ohio adjusted gross84
income for the taxable year, the amount the taxpayer paid during85
the taxable year for medical care insurance and qualified86
long-term care insurance for the taxpayer, the taxpayer's spouse,87
and dependents. No deduction for medical care insurance under88
division (A)(11) of this section shall be allowed either to any89
taxpayer who is eligible to participate in any subsidized health90
plan maintained by any employer of the taxpayer or of the91
taxpayer's spouse, or to any taxpayer who is entitled to, or on92
application would be entitled to, benefits under part A of Title93
XVIII of the "Social Security Act," 49 Stat. 620 (1935), 42 U.S.C.94
301, as amended. For the purposes of division (A)(11)(a) of this95
section, "subsidized health plan" means a health plan for which96
the employer pays any portion of the plan's cost. The deduction97
allowed under division (A)(11)(a) of this section shall be the net98
of any related premium refunds, related premium reimbursements, or99
related insurance premium dividends received during the taxable100
year.101

       (b) Deduct, to the extent not otherwise deducted or excluded102
in computing federal or Ohio adjusted gross income during the103
taxable year, the amount the taxpayer paid during the taxable104
year, not compensated for by any insurance or otherwise, for105
medical care of the taxpayer, the taxpayer's spouse, and106
dependents, to the extent the expenses exceed seven and one-half107
per cent of the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income.108

       (c) For purposes of division (A)(11) of this section,109
"medical care" has the meaning given in section 213 of the110
Internal Revenue Code, subject to the special rules, limitations,111
and exclusions set forth therein, and "qualified long-term care"112
has the same meaning given in section 7702B(c) of the Internal113
Revenue Code.114

       (12)(a) Deduct any amount included in federal adjusted gross115
income solely because the amount represents a reimbursement or116
refund of expenses that in any year the taxpayer had deducted as117
an itemized deduction pursuant to section 63 of the Internal118
Revenue Code and applicable United States department of the119
treasury regulations. The deduction otherwise allowed under120
division (A)(12)(a) of this section shall be reduced to the extent121
the reimbursement is attributable to an amount the taxpayer122
deducted under this section in any taxable year.123

       (b) Add any amount not otherwise included in Ohio adjusted124
gross income for any taxable year to the extent that the amount is125
attributable to the recovery during the taxable year of any amount126
deducted or excluded in computing federal or Ohio adjusted gross127
income in any taxable year.128

       (13) Deduct any portion of the deduction described in section 129
1341(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, for repaying previously 130
reported income received under a claim of right, that meets both 131
of the following requirements:132

       (a) It is allowable for repayment of an item that was133
included in the taxpayer's adjusted gross income for a prior134
taxable year and did not qualify for a credit under division (A)135
or (B) of section 5747.05 of the Revised Code for that year;136

       (b) It does not otherwise reduce the taxpayer's adjusted137
gross income for the current or any other taxable year.138

       (14) Deduct an amount equal to the deposits made to, and net139
investment earnings of, a medical savings account during the140
taxable year, in accordance with section 3924.66 of the Revised141
Code. The deduction allowed by division (A)(14) of this section142
does not apply to medical savings account deposits and earnings143
otherwise deducted or excluded for the current or any other144
taxable year from the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income.145

       (15)(a) Add an amount equal to the funds withdrawn from a146
medical savings account during the taxable year, and the net147
investment earnings on those funds, when the funds withdrawn were148
used for any purpose other than to reimburse an account holder149
for, or to pay, eligible medical expenses, in accordance with150
section 3924.66 of the Revised Code;151

       (b) Add the amounts distributed from a medical savings152
account under division (A)(2) of section 3924.68 of the Revised153

satisfies either of the following:157

       (a) The amount was deducted or excluded from the computation158
of the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income as required to be159
reported for the taxpayer's taxable year under the Internal160
Revenue Code;161

       (b) The amount resulted in a reduction of the taxpayer's162
federal adjusted gross income as required to be reported for any163
of the taxpayer's taxable years under the Internal Revenue Code.164

       (17) Deduct the amount contributed by the taxpayer to an165
individual development account program established by a county166
department of job and family services pursuant to sections 329.11167
to 329.14 of the Revised Code for the purpose of matching funds168
deposited by program participants. On request of the tax169
commissioner, the taxpayer shall provide any information that, in170
the tax commissioner's opinion, is necessary to establish the171
amount deducted under division (A)(17) of this section.172

       (18) Beginning in taxable year 2001 but not for any taxable 173
year beginning after December 31, 2005, if the taxpayer is married174
and files a joint return and the combined federal adjusted gross 175
income of the taxpayer and the taxpayer's spouse for the taxable 176
year does not exceed one hundred thousand dollars, or if the 177
taxpayer is single and has a federal adjusted gross income for the178
taxable year not exceeding fifty thousand dollars, deduct amounts 179
paid during the taxable year for qualified tuition and fees paid 180
to an eligible institution for the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 181
spouse, or any dependent of the taxpayer, who is a resident of 182
this state and is enrolled in or attending a program that183
culminates in a degree or diploma at an eligible institution. The 184
deduction may be claimed only to the extent that qualified tuition 185
and fees are not otherwise deducted or excluded for any taxable 186
year from federal or Ohio adjusted gross income. The deduction may 187
not be claimed for educational expenses for which the taxpayer 188
claims a credit under section 5747.27 of the Revised Code.189

       (19) Add any reimbursement received during the taxable year190
of any amount the taxpayer deducted under division (A)(18) of this191
section in any previous taxable year to the extent the amount is192
not otherwise included in Ohio adjusted gross income.193

       (20)(a)(i) Add five-sixths of the amount of depreciation194
expense allowed by subsection (k) of section 168 of the Internal195
Revenue Code, including the taxpayer's proportionate or196
distributive share of the amount of depreciation expense allowed197
by that subsection to a pass-through entity in which the taxpayer198
has a direct or indirect ownership interest.199

       (ii) Add five-sixths of the amount of qualifying section 179 200
depreciation expense, including a person's proportionate or 201
distributive share of the amount of qualifying section 179 202
depreciation expense allowed to any pass-through entity in which 203
the person has a direct or indirect ownership. For the purposes of 204
this division, "qualifying section 179 depreciation expense" means 205
the difference between (I) the amount of depreciation expense 206
directly or indirectly allowed to the taxpayer under section 179 207

five per cent of the pass-through entity.215

       (b) Nothing in division (A)(20) of this section shall be216
construed to adjust or modify the adjusted basis of any asset.217

       (c) To the extent the add-back required under division218
(A)(20)(a) of this section is attributable to property generating219
nonbusiness income or loss allocated under section 5747.20 of the220
Revised Code, the add-back shall be sitused to the same location221
as the nonbusiness income or loss generated by the property for222
the purpose of determining the credit under division (A) of223
section 5747.05 of the Revised Code. Otherwise, the add-back shall 224
be apportioned, subject to one or more of the four alternative 225
methods of apportionment enumerated in section 5747.21 of the 226
Revised Code.227

       (d) For the purposes of division (A) of this section, net 228
operating loss carryback and carryforward shall not include 229
five-sixths of the allowance of any net operating loss deduction 230
carryback or carryforward to the taxable year to the extent such 231
loss resulted from depreciation allowed by section 168(k) of the 232
Internal Revenue Code and by the qualifying section 179 233
depreciation expense amount.234

       (21)(a) If the taxpayer was required to add an amount under235

to the same location. Otherwise, the add-back shall be apportioned 242
using the apportionment factors for the taxable year in which the 243
deduction is taken, subject to one or more of the four alternative 244
methods of apportionment enumerated in section 5747.21 of the 245
Revised Code.246

       (c) No deduction is available under division (A)(21)(a) of 247
this section with regard to any depreciation allowed by section 248
168(k) of the Internal Revenue Code and by the qualifying section 249
179 depreciation expense amount to the extent that such 250
depreciation resulted in or increased a federal net operating loss 251
carryback or carryforward to a taxable year to which division 252
(A)(20)(d) of this section does not apply.253

       (22) Deduct, to the extent not otherwise deducted or excluded 254
in computing federal or Ohio adjusted gross income for the taxable 255

        (d) For the purposes of division (I)(3)(a) of this section,403
the extent to which a trust consists directly or indirectly, in404
whole or in part, of assets, net of any related liabilities, that405
were transferred directly or indirectly, in whole or part, to the406
trust by any of the sources enumerated in that division shall be407
ascertained by multiplying the fair market value of the trust's408
assets, net of related liabilities, by the qualifying ratio, which409
shall be computed as follows:410

of the qualifying ratio is the fair market value of those assets412
at that time, net of any related liabilities, from sources413
enumerated in division (I)(3)(a) of this section. The denominator414
of the qualifying ratio is the fair market value of all the415
trust's assets at that time, net of any related liabilities.416

        (ii) Each subsequent time the trust receives assets, a417
revised qualifying ratio shall be computed. The numerator of the418

transfer, net of any related liabilities, multiplied by the421
qualifying ratio last computed without regard to the subsequent422
transfer, and (2) the fair market value of the subsequently423
transferred assets at the time transferred, net of any related424
liabilities, from sources enumerated in division (I)(3)(a) of this425
section. The denominator of the revised qualifying ratio is the426
fair market value of all the trust's assets immediately after the427
subsequent transfer, net of any related liabilities.428

       (iii) Whether a transfer to the trust is by or from any of 429
the sources enumerated in division (I)(3)(a) of this section shall 430
be ascertained without regard to the domicile of the trust's 431
beneficiaries.432

        (e) For the purposes of division (I)(3)(a)(i) of this433
section:434

        (i) A trust is described in division (I)(3)(e)(i) of this435
section if the trust is a testamentary trust and the testator of436
that testamentary trust was domiciled in this state at the time of437
the testator's death for purposes of the taxes levied under438
Chapter 5731. of the Revised Code.439

        (ii) A trust is described in division (I)(3)(e)(ii) of this440
section if the transfer is a qualifying transfer described in any441
of divisions (I)(3)(f)(i) to (vi) of this section, the trust is an442

day of the upper level pass-through entity's fiscal or calendar820
year. If the upper level pass-through entity directly and821
indirectly owns less than fifty per cent of the equity of the822
lower level pass-through entity on each day of the upper level823

which ends the calendar or fiscal year of the lower level825
pass-through entity and if, based upon clear and convincing826
evidence, complete information about the location and cost of the827
physical assets of the lower pass-through entity is not available828
to the upper level pass-through entity, then solely for purposes829
of ascertaining if a gain or loss constitutes a qualifying trust830
amount, the upper level pass-through entity shall be deemed as831
owning no equity of the lower level pass-through entity for each832
day during the upper level pass-through entity's calendar or833
fiscal year in which or with which ends the lower level834
pass-through entity's calendar or fiscal year. Nothing in division 835
