In July of each year, beginning in 2010, the tax
commissioner
shall adjust the income amounts prescribed in this
division by
multiplying the percentage increase in the gross
domestic product
deflator computed that year under section
5747.025 of the Revised
Code by each of the income amounts
resulting from the adjustment
under this division in the preceding
year, adding the resulting
product to the corresponding income
amount resulting from the
adjustment in the preceding year, and
rounding the resulting sum
to the nearest multiple of fifty
dollars. The tax commissioner
also shall recompute each of the
tax dollar amounts to the extent
necessary to reflect the
adjustment of the income amounts. The
rates of taxation shall not
be adjusted.
The adjusted amounts apply to taxable years beginning in the
calendar year in which the adjustments are made. The tax
commissioner shall not make such adjustments in any year in which
the amount resulting from the adjustment would be less than the
amount resulting from the adjustment in the preceding year (7) For
taxable years beginning in 2010 and thereafter, multiply the tax
determined under division (A)(6) of this section, less all credits
to which the taxpayer is entitled under this chapter, by the
following:
TAXABLE YEARS BEGINNING IN |
PER CENT |

2016 |
30% |
2017 |

2018 |
10% |
2019 and thereafter |
0% |
For the purpose of computing the amount of any credit that
may be carried forward to an ensuing year under division (A)(7) of
this section, a credit is utilized against the tax otherwise due
for a taxable year to the extent the credit applies against the
tax for that taxable year without regard to the percentage by
which the tax due is multiplied under that division.
(B) If the director of budget and management makes a
certification to the tax commissioner under division (B)
of
section
131.44 of the Revised Code, the amount of tax as
determined under division (A)
of this section shall be reduced by
the percentage prescribed in that
certification for taxable years
beginning in the calendar year in which that
certification is
made.
(C) The levy of this tax on income does not prevent a
municipal
corporation, a joint economic development zone created
under section 715.691,
or a joint economic development district
created under
section 715.70 or 715.71 or sections 715.72 to
715.81 of the Revised Code from
levying a tax on income.
(D)
This division applies only
to taxable
years of a trust
beginning in 2002 or thereafter.
(1) The tax imposed by this section on a trust shall be
computed
by multiplying the
Ohio modified taxable income of the
trust
by the
rates prescribed by division (A) of this section.
(2) A credit is allowed against the tax computed under
division
(D) of this section equal to the lesser of (1) the tax
paid to
another state or the District of Columbia on
the trust's
modified nonbusiness
income, other than the portion of
the trust's
nonbusiness income that is qualifying investment
income as defined
in section 5747.012 of the Revised Code, or (2)
the effective tax
rate, based on
modified
Ohio taxable income,
multiplied by the
trust's modified nonbusiness
income
other than the portion of
trust's nonbusiness income that is
qualifying investment income.
The credit applies before any other
applicable credits.
(3) The credits enumerated in divisions (A)(1) to
(13) of
section 5747.98 of the Revised Code do not apply to a
trust
subject to this division.
Any credits enumerated in other
divisions of section 5747.98 of the Revised Code apply to a trust
subject to this division. To the extent that the trust
distributes
income for the taxable year for which a credit is
available to the
trust, the credit shall be shared by the trust
and its
beneficiaries. The tax commissioner and the trust shall
be guided
by applicable regulations of the United States treasury
regarding
the sharing of credits.
(E) For the purposes of this section, "trust" means any
trust
described in Subchapter J
of Chapter 1 of the Internal
Revenue
Code,
excluding
trusts that are not irrevocable as
defined in
division (I)(3)(b) of section 5747.01 of the Revised
Code and that
have no modified Ohio taxable income for the taxable
year,
charitable remainder trusts, qualified funeral trusts and preneed
funeral contract trusts established pursuant to section 1111.19 of
the Revised Code that are not qualified funeral trusts, endowment
and perpetual care trusts, qualified settlement trusts
and funds,
designated settlement trusts and funds, and trusts
exempted from
taxation under section 501(a)
of
the Internal
Revenue Code.
Sec. 5747.41. For the same purposes for which the tax is
levied under section
5747.02 of the Revised Code, there is hereby
levied a withholding tax on every
qualifying pass-through entity
having at least one qualifying investor who is
an individual and
on every qualifying trust having at least one qualifying
beneficiary who is an individual. The tax does not apply to a
qualifying entity's qualifying taxable year ending after 2018. The
withholding tax imposed by this section
is imposed on the sum of
the adjusted qualifying amounts of a qualifying
pass-through
entity's qualifying investors who are individuals and on the sum
of the adjusted qualifying amounts of a qualifying trust's
qualifying
beneficiaries, at the rate of five per cent of that
sum.
The tax imposed by this section applies only if the
qualifying entity has
nexus with this state under the Constitution
of the United States for any
portion of the qualifying entity's
qualifying taxable year, and the sum of the
qualifying entity's
adjusted qualifying amounts exceeds one thousand dollars
for the
qualifying entity's qualifying taxable year.
The levy of the tax under this section does not prevent a
municipal
corporation or a joint economic development district
created under section
715.70 or 715.71 or sections 715.72 to
715.81 of the Revised Code from levying
a tax on income.
Section 2. That existing sections 5747.02 and 5747.41 of the
Revised Code are hereby repealed.
