Contribute to a Statewide Candidate = Get a State Tax Credit 💸

Quick reminder about the Ohio income tax nonrefundable credit (not deduction!) for contributions to STATE (and only state) candidate campaign contributions. Simply make a contribution by the end of the year and get it back on your tax return!   
 
The Ohio Statehouse voted to remove this credit in 2019, then reinstated it at a later date. Contributions or gifts to Candidate Committees are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes but Ohio taxpayers may claim a state tax credit for contributions made to political campaign committees of candidates for statewide office or the General Assembly. The credit is the lesser of the amount contributed or $50 for an individual return or $100 for a joint return.  (Line 7a on the 2020 Ohio Schedule of Credits (subject to change for 2021)) Consult a tax professional for more information. The following candidate offices are acceptable for this credit: governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, attorney general, member of the state board of education, chief justice of the supreme court, justice of the supreme court, or member of the general assembly.
