Summary
Ohio House Bill 889 creates a nonrefundable income tax credit for Ohioans who pay for fertility treatment expenses. Fertility treatments can include procedures like in vitro fertilization and other assisted reproductive therapies. Under this bill, taxpayers could claim a credit on their state income tax return for qualified fertility treatment costs they incur, which would reduce their state income tax liability. The credit is nonrefundable, meaning it can reduce taxes owed to zero but will not result in a refund for any excess credit amount.
