What employers withhold

Ohio employers withhold municipal income tax for the city or village where the employee works. If an employee works in Geneva, withhold 1.5% of their qualifying wages for Geneva. Short stays in another municipality can be treated differently; check with the city tax office before you change withholding.

Geneva residents who pay tax to the city where they work get a credit of 100% of that tax, limited to 1% of the wages. If the credit doesn't fully cover Geneva's 1.5%, residents owe the difference, and some employers withhold it as a courtesy.
