Tax

Every resident 18 years of age and older who lives within the corporation limits of Tipp City is required to file an annual income tax return with the city. Residents who are 16 or 17 years of age only need to file if there is Tipp City tax due. Filing is required even if there was no earned income, you were a full-time student or were claimed as a dependent on someone else's federal return.

Residents who have retired and no longer have any taxable income may receive an exemption from filing the annual return. Also, residents with disabilities that prevent them from working can receive the same exemption. For more information, please contact the tax department.

As mentioned before, the annual return is only required by those who live within the corporation limits of Tipp City. To see if you would be subject to Tipp City's mandatory filing requirement based on your address, please visit The Finder on the Ohio Department of Taxation's website.
