Summary
Ohio House Bill 903 would modify the state earned income tax credit to make it partially refundable. Currently, the earned income tax credit can only reduce a taxpayer's state income tax liability to zero. Under this bill, if a taxpayer's earned income tax credit exceeds their tax liability, they would receive a refund for a portion of the excess credit amount. This change would allow lower-income working Ohioans to receive refunds when their tax credits are larger than the taxes they owe.
