mortgages and utilities located in and outside of Ohio.
Computation of Tax
The nonresident tax base is determined by multiplying the tax due (as computed on
the estate tax form 2) by a fraction, the numerator of which is the gross value of all
(R.C. Section 5731.19)
property having a taxable situs in this state, and the denominator of which is the value
of the gross estate wherever situated (line 1 of the estate tax form 2, page 1).
When and Where to
Returns are required to be fi led within nine months from decedent’s date of death (see
File (R.C. Section
Extension of Time to File, below). All fi lings must be made in duplicate in the county
where the principal portion of the property having a taxable situs is located.

Distribution of Tax
For dates of death Jan. 1, 2002 – Dec. 31, 2012, 80% of the tax is distributed to the
municipal corporation, village or township in which the tax originates, and 20% to the
(R.C. Sections 5731.48
state of Ohio. For dates of death between Jan. 1, 2001 through Dec. 31, 2001, 70%
and 5731.50)
of the tax is distributed to the municipal corporation, village or township in which the
tax originates, and 30% to the state of Ohio. For dates of death before Jan. 1, 2001,
64% of the tax is distributed to the municipal corporation, village or township in which
the tax originates, and 36% to the state of Ohio.
Extension of Time
Estates of decedents with a date of death on or after Jan. 1, 2000 are granted an au-
tomatic six-month extension, allowing them a total of 15 months to fi le the estate tax

return. Any additional six-month extension must be requested in writing directly to the
5731.21)
Estate Tax Unit on estate tax form 24 before the due date of the return.
Interest on any estate tax due will be calculated from nine months from date of
death regardless if the estate uses the automatic or additional extensions. To
stop the accrual of interest, an estimated payment of tax may be made.
