Am I required to withhold? Every employer located within or doing business within the City of Fairfield who employs one or 
more persons is required to withhold the City of Fairfield municipal tax from wages subject to withholding. 

What is the City of Fairfield's tax rate? 1.5 %

Should I remit withholdings quarterly, monthly or semi-monthly?              Eligibility for monthly  ,uarterlyq , or semi-monthly 
withholding is based on the following "Look Back" provisions. If your business remitted more than $2,399.00 in the previous 
year or more than $200.00 any month in the previous quarter, you will be required to remit monthly. If your business remitted less 
than $2,399.00 in the previous year or less than $200.00 any month in the previous quarter, payments should be remitted 
quarterly. If your business remitted more than $11,999.00 in the previous year or more than $1,000.00 any month in the previous 
quarter, payments should be remitted semi-monthly.

Am I required to withhold for Fairfield resident employees who are working from home? No, if an employee is working 
from home you may choose to withhold Fairfield tax as a courtesy, but you are not legally required to do so.

What are the ways that I can remit withholding payments? Checks can be mailed to the Fairfield P.O. Box listed above. 
Electronic filing through the Ohio Business Gateway (OBG) can also be utilized to submit withholding payments. The date used 
for determining timeliness of the electronic filing will be the date submitted. Information and instructions on how to register and 
remit payments through the OBG may be found at business.ohio.gov. 

What are the penalties for late or missing withholding payments? Quarterly withholding payments are due on the last day of 
the month following the end of the last day of each quarter. Monthly withholding payments are due on the fifteenth day of the 
month following the end of month. Semi-monthly withholding payments are due the third banking day after the fifteenth day of 
the month (for the first semi-monthly payment of the month) or the third banking day after the last day of the month (for the 
second semi-monthly payment of the month). Your payment must be postmarked on or before the due date to be considered on 
time. There is no grace period. Late withholding payments are penalized at the rate of       50%   of the amount not timely   paid,  plus 
interest. This is     a penalty prescribed by the ORC Chapter  718. Specific language may    be found at    http://codes.ohio.gov/
orc/718.27. Interest is   calculated using the Federal Short  Term  Rate (rounded to   the nearest percent) +   5%.    

When is the Annual Reconciliation due? The last day of February each year.

What is required to be submitted with the annual reconciliation? A completed copy of the Fairfield Annual Reconciliation 
and all W-2(s) which include the employee's name, address, full social security number, qualifying wage compensation, and City 
of Fairfield tax withholding. If more than one city tax was withheld, then the W-2's must show a breakdown of each city for which 
tax was withheld, the wages earned in each city, and the amount of city tax withheld for each city.

Where can I find information about submitting W-2s in electronic file format? Instructions and filing information can be 
found on the Income Tax Division's page of the City of Fairfield website under "Business Tax Forms".
