New Budget Plan Reduces Government Spending
Dealing with the Ohio Department of Taxation (ODT) just became a little more difficult. ODT has announced that June 30, 2011 was the last day that Service Centers in Akron, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dayton, Toledo, Youngstown, and Zanesville would be open.
This move is expected to save more than $7 million/year. A union leader for the laid off tax workers argued that the closings would hurt 42,000 taxpayers that visit the offices each year. This move was one among many that were recently passed by Gov. Kasich’s new budget plan to reduce government spending.
Only three walk-in centers remain:
- 4485 Northland Ridge Blvd., Columbus, OH 43229 (Income)
- 30 East Broad St., 20th Floor, Columbus, OH 43215 (Sales and Use Tax)
- 30 East Broad St., 19th Floor, Columbus, OH 43215 (Excise, Motor Fuel & IFTA)
If you need help with your Ohio taxes, you will now need to travel to Columbus, visit ODT’s website, or call the automated telephone hotline (800) 282-1780 (for personal income tax issues).
Or, you can always call us if you have any questions.
You can contact us in Dayton at 937-436-3133 and in Xenia at 937-372-3504. Or visit our website.
