Estate Tax

In Ohio, an Estate Tax return must be filed within nine months of a person’s date of death.

One copy is filed with the Probate Court and a second copy is filed with the County Auditor, who acts as agent of the Ohio Tax Commissioner.

The tax due is based on the net value of the decedent’s estate.

Effective Jan. 1, 2002 the estate tax return must only be filed for estates with gross value over $338,333.
