Electronic Filing - Ohio Department Of Taxation

Modernized e-File Error Codes

One of the many advantages of modernized e-File is the ability to identify problems with a return before we

process it. Software developers and practitioners will receive an error code with the acknowledgement transmis-

sion when software or practitioner errors are identified. Error codes are summarized below.

OHCOM

o Errors that may occur on either the personal or school district income tax return

OHIND

o Errors that may occur on the personal income tax return only

OH-SD

o Errors that may occur on the school district income tax return only

The acknowledgement file indicates if the Ohio individual, and if applicable, the school district income tax return

has been accepted, accepted with an alert message, or rejected.

NOTE: All returns go through a series of business rules after they have been accepted for processing. As such,

there may be delays in processing the taxpayer‟s return. The department will notify the taxpayer if they need ad-

ditional information to verify a line item adjustment or to verify taxes withheld. This process may delay a taxpay-

er‟s refund, increase a taxpayer‟s refund/balance due, or reduce a taxpayer‟s refund/balance due.

An „Accepted‟ return indicates the return was received and processed. At the time of receipt, you do not have to

correct or retransmit the return.

An „Alert‟ in the acknowledgement file indicates the return was received and processed. At the time of receipt,

you do not have to correct or retransmit the return. The message that accompanies the alert code will provide

additional details. The table below identifies the error codes and the alert messages:
