                                                        Filing Tips
Provide a Current Address 
The Department uses the most up-to-date address on file to send correspondence, billings, assessments and refunds. If the address is 
not correct, refunds and notices will be mailed to the incorrect address. To update an address, check the box above the address line on 
the return or visit the Business Address Update page at tax.ohio.gov to change the address.

Verify the IT 1041 and UPCs are for the Correct Tax Year
The Department releases new forms and UPCs each tax year. Do not cross out the year at the top of the IT 1041 or UPC and write in a 
new one, as doing so will delay the processing of the IT 1041 or UPC.

Maintain a Bank Account
The trust or estate must maintain its bank account to ensure it can receive refunds after its closing date. The Department cannot change 
the name on a refund check, nor issue the check directly to a trustee or beneficiary, due to the closing or termination of a trust or estate.

Report FEIN or SSN in Correct Field 
Do not enter an SSN in the FEIN field nor enter a FEIN in the SSN field. 

Determine Residency of the Trust  
A trust’s residency is determined under Ohio law using a series of tests; it is not determined based on the location of either the trustee or 
the administration of the trust’s assets. Please note, it is possible that more than one residency test can apply to all or a portion of a trust. 
See R.C. 5747.01(I)(3) and Information Release IT 2003-02 - Trust Residency.

Reprint Corrected Software-Generated Paper Returns
If the printed software-generated return from a tax preparation program subsequently requires changes on the return, do not write in 
the changes. Use the software to make the necessary changes, save, and reprint the return. The Department’s system will not pick up 
handwritten changes on returns generated by tax preparation software.

Complete All Applicable Schedules on the Return
When filing via a software program, complete all relevant schedules and do not override any line items. Information from schedules on 
the return flows to other lines that are used to calculate the tax liability. If the schedules are not completed, a value of zero will flow to the 
corresponding lines, which will override any amounts that may have been entered. 
Report Trust income as Follows:
Qualifying trust amounts on schedule VI (see page 13 for instructions);
Apportioned modified business income and qualifying investment income on schedule VII (see page 13 for instructions);
Allocated  modified nonbusiness income on schedule VIII (see page 13 for instructions). 
Trust income categorized incorrectly may result in a potential billing notice or refund reduction.

Report Apportionment Ratio and Ownership Percentage
Enter percentages and ratios in decimal format (e.g., report 30.09% as .3009). Report 100% as 1.0000. Enter apportionment ratios in 
decimal format and carry to six decimal places. In addition, do not enter text (e.g., “null” or “zero”) in numeric fields.

Report Estimated Payments, Withholding, and Credits on Correct Lines
Incorrect reporting of the payments, withholdings, and credits may result in a denied/reduced refund or bill.
  Report estimated payments and withholding/overpayments previously claimed on Schedule XI – Net Payment Worksheet as  
  follows:
     Line 79a: Enter estimated payments made with an IT 1041 UPC or EFT payments made through the Ohio Treasurer of State  
      for this tax year;
     Line 79b: Enter 1099 withholding;
     Line 79c: Enter W-2 withholding;
     Line 79e: [Amended Return ONLY] Enter the refund amount from line 17 from the original return filed for this tax year.
 Report refundable business credits on Line 15 of Schedule 1 and on Schedule XII – Refundable Business Credits as follows:
     Line 81: Enter the Motion Picture/Broadway credit;
     Line 82: Enter the refundable portion of the Job Retention credit and the Job Creation credit;
     Line 83: Enter the Pass-Through Entity credit;
     Line 84: Enter the Venture Capital credit;
     Line 85: Enter the refundable portion of the Ohio Historic Preservation credit.
 Report nonrefundable business credits on Line 10 of Schedule 1 and on Schedule E. Include a copy of Schedule E, Schedule of 
   Nonrefundable Business Credits, and include copies of the required certificates and/or IT K-1s for verification. 
     Do not use Schedule E to claim refundable credits. Instead, claim refundable credits on the appropriate “refundable credits” line. 

Calculate the Resident Tax Credit on the Trust’s Modified Nonbusiness income
Include only the modified nonbusiness income in the calculation of the resident trust tax credit on Schedule IX. Failure to do so may result 
in a denied/reduced refund or bill.

Report Proportionate Share of Credits
A distribution made by a trust/estate may affect the amount of a credit it is allowed to claim on its IT 1041. Credits must be shared between 
the trust or estate and the beneficiaries in proportion to the income retained versus distributed. See R.C. 5747.02(C)(3).

                                                     Payment Options
First-Time Filers: Submit PTE Registration Form Before First Estimated Payment
If the trust or estate is a first-time filer, submit the Pass-Through Entity and Fiduciary Income Tax Registration Form before submitting 
the first estimated payment. The form can be found on the tax.ohio.gov website in the Tax Forms search. Failure to submit the regis-
tration form may result in a delay in processing the estimated payment(s), resulting in a billing notice or refund delay.
Submit a Separate Check for Each Balance
A separate check is required for each tax return payment, estimated payment, billing/assessment payment, etc. The Department cannot 
apply a single check to multiple balances. The check or money order should be made payable to “Ohio Treasurer of State” with identify-
ing information on the memo line, including: 
 Federal employer identification number    (FEIN), orSSN for decedent’s estate,only
  Tax form using the payment (IT 1041)
  Tax year end for the payment (mm-dd-yy)

Using Payment Coupons Created by Third-Party Software
Before submitting a payment coupon created by third party software, please verify the reporting period end date matches the software-
generated Key ID numbers and the number string at the bottom of the payment coupon, in the format MMYY. If mismatched, the pay-
ment will be misdirected, causing a delay in processing the estimated payment(s), resulting in a billing notice or refund delay. 
Please contact the third-party software company’s support line to resolve.

Methods for Making PTE and Fiduciary Income Tax Payments

Completing the Universal Payment Coupon (UPC)
Each payment made by check or money order must be submitted with the appropriate Ohio Universal Payment Coupon (UPC).  Ap-
plication of payments is driven by the UPC used and is based on which form is filed (i.e., IT 1041, IT 4708, IT 4738, or IT 1140). Each 
UPC allows the Taxpayer to make either an estimated payment (“ES” payment) or payment submitted with the tax return (“P” payment). 
Only one type of payment can be made on each UPC submitted.
All UPCs can be found on the searchable Tax Forms page by entering “UPC” in the Form Title or Number field.
The IT 1041 UPC is used by trusts and estates to make either an estimated payment (IT 1041ES Trust or Estate) or a payment submit-
ted with the trust/estate return (IT 1041P Trust or Estate). When completing the UPC:
Indicate the reporting period by providing the filing period start date and end date in the format mm-dd-yy;
Specify the appropriate payment type (IT 1041ES Trust or Estate or IT 1041P Trust or Estate);
Enter the entity type code in the box above the payment amount (*see codes on instructions page above UPC);
Enter the amount of payment as a whole number without a decimal, as the UPC features a preprinted “.00”;
A FEIN should be entered for a trust.  The SSN field should only be used by the estate.

Sample IT 1041 UPC: This form must be included with each check or money order.

Include a Check or Money Order with each IT 1041 UPC
Payable to “Ohio Treasurer of State” with identifying information on the memo line, including: 

Federal employer identification number (   FEIN), orSSN for decedent’s estateonly

                                           Matching Expense and Loss Amounts
                              and Distribution Deductions Against Income and Gain
  For use when calculating the portion of a fiduciary’s expenses, losses, and distributions deduction related to its income.

The fiduciary should directly match items of income and gain with 
any directly related expenses and losses.                                         (A)  Rental Activity
For amounts that the fiduciary cannot directly match to items of                  Rents                                            $  530,000

Example #1 - Assigning Direct Distributions                                       activities (business income)                     $ 400,000
The trust document directs the fiduciary to distribute to Lee, a ben-
eficiary, 75% of the yearly profit from rental activities. 
                                                                                  (B)  Portfolio Income
  The profit from these rental activities is $100,000 of business 
     income.                                                                      Dividends, interest and net capital gains        $  301,000
   The trust had no other income and the only distribution to Lee                Less: Investment advisor fees                    -     1,000
     from the trust was $75,000.
                                                                                  Tentative profit from “portfolio” income
The fiduciary must reduce the trust’s rental profit by the distribution           (nonbusiness income)                             $ 300,000
deduction attributable to the rental profit (in this example, 75% of 
the rental activity profit). So the amount to be shown on Schedule 
VII, line 62, will be $25,000.                                                    Total income excluding $70,000 indirect expense is $700,000.

The Trust has the following amounts listed on its Federal 1041:
Gross rent                                                $530,000       (A)      Rental Activity (Schedule VII):
Dividend income                                               200,000    (A)      Divide by total income $700,000 excluding indirect expense 
Interest Income                                                 41,000   (B)      of $70,000:
Net capital gain (stocks and bonds)                        60,000        (B)
Rental property depreciation expense                       - 100,000     (B)      $ 400,000                               =  .571428

payroll expenses                                           -   25,000    (A)
Attorney fees (lease preparation)                          -     5,000   (A)      Multiply:
Investment advisor fees (stocks & bonds)                   -     1,000   (B)      $ 70,000 X .571428                      = $40,000
Fiduciary fees (based upon profit)                         -   10,000    (C)
Distribution deduction (discretionary)                     -   60,000    (C)      Rental income - assigned rental expense
Taxable income per IRS form 1041                          $ 630,000               $400,000 - $40,000 = $360,000

Additionally, assume the following:
                                                                                  Portfolio Income (Schedule VIII):
• The rental profit constitutes business income;                                  Divide by total income $700,000 excluding indirect expense 
• All other income and gain constitute nonbusiness income;                        of $70,000:
• There are no “Schedule II” Ohio adjustments (so Ohio taxable 
income equals federal taxable income); AND                                        $ 300,000                               =  .428571
• There are no amounts to report on IT-1041 Schedules VI or VII; AND              $700,000
• Income from the federal schedule is categorized as follows:
     (A) = Rental Activity                                                        Multiply:
     (B) = Portfolio Income                                                       $ 70,000 X .428571                      = $30,000
     (C) = Indirect Expense and Deductions
                                                                                  Portfolio income - assigned portfolio expense
The total indirect expense and deductions for this trust are $70,000.             $300,000 - $30,000 = $270,000
The expenses to the specific income categories are calculated is 
as follows:
