Coupon Packet—Included in this packet are quarterly Employer Withholding Coupons
and a year-end Annual Reconciliation Form. Note: any employer who is required to
remit deposit of withholding by electronic funds transfer (EFT) for Federal tax
purposes must also remit deposit of withholding by EFT for Delaware tax purposes.
Remittance of withholding coupon is not necessary if remitting payment of
withholding via EFT. Visit our website at www.delawareohio.net/income-tax-faqs for
more information including EFT file specifications.
Who must file—Any employer within or doing business within the City of Delaware,
Ohio, who employs one or more persons is required to withhold the current tax rate
from all qualifying wages paid to or accrued by the employee(s) and to file these
coupon forms and remit tax to the City of Delaware Income Tax Department
pursuant to the Delaware Income Tax Ordinance.
Deposit Requirements—The City of Delaware income tax must be remitted to the
Income Tax Department on a monthly basis unless withholding amounts are less than
two hundered dollars ($200.00) per month. Each employer is required to file the
“Employer’s Return of Tax Withheld” coupon along with the monthly or quarterly
withholding payments on or before the due dates as shown below to the Income Tax
Department. The failure of any employer to receive or procure the forms shall not
excuse them from making this return or from remitting the tax withheld.
Quarterly—If tax withheld or required to be withheld is less than $200 per
month, remittance is due by the last day of the month following the end of a
quarterly period (April 30, July 31, October 31, January 31).
Monthly—If more than $200 is withheld or required to be withheld per month,
remittance is due by the fifteenth day of the following month.
Failure To File Return and Pay Tax—All taxes, including taxes withheld or required to
be withheld from wages by an employer and remaining unpaid after they become
due, shall bear interest on the amount of the unpaid tax at the current annual
short term rate plus five percent (5%) annually and a late payment penalty of fifty
percent (50%) of tax due. The failure to receive a withholding deposit coupon
form shall not excuse an employer from making a return and depositing the taxes
withheld.

QUALIFYING WAGES FOR WITHHOLDING (Ohio Revised Code, Sec 718.03)
Medicare Wages
An employer is required to withhold only on “qualifying wages,” which are wages as
defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 3121(a), generally the Medicare Wage Box
of Form W-2.
Medicare Exempt Employees—These employees are subject to the requirements
for “qualifying wages” in the Medicare Wage Box of FormW-2 even though that
box will remain blank.
Cafeteria Plans—Internal Revenue Code Section 125 wages are not included in
the definition of Medicare wages and do not need to be deducted from the
Medicare Wage Box.
401(k), 457, and Supplemental Unemployment Compensation Benefits—These
items should all be included in the Medicare Wage Box and are subject to
withholding requirements.
Stock Options—Income from the exercise of stock options is included in the
definition of “qualifying wages” and is subject to withholding requirements.
Disqualifying Disposition of an Incentive Stock Option—Employer is not required
to withhold, but the income is considered “qualifying wages,” and the recipient is
liable for the tax.
Note: As an employer, if the Medicare Wage Box is not the largest wage figure on
the W-2 Form, a written explanation will be required.

On or before the last day of February of each year, each employer must
file a withholding reconciliation using the City of Delaware form.
Copies of all W-2 Forms applicable to the reconciliation must be
attached. A file in the SSA file format that includes W-2 and local tax
information may be provided instead of paper W-2 forms.
All W-2’s must furnish the name, address, social security number,
qualifying wages, city tax withheld, name of city for which tax was
withheld, and any other compensation paid to the individual. If copies
of the W-2 Forms are not available, each employer must provide a
listing of all employees subject to Delaware tax. The listing shall
require the same type of information as is required on the W-2 Form.
Any individual, association, or business entity that is required under the
Internal Revenue Code to issue Form 1099 to any person shall, on or
before the last day of February of each year, file copies of said 1099’s
to the Income Tax Department. If 1099 copies are not available, a
listing with the same information as contained on Form 1099 may be
submitted. Failure to comply may result in penalty assessment.
The front of the Annual Reconciliation Form must show a breakdown of
all withholding payments made either quarterly or monthly in the
boxes provided. Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 must be completed.
The total tax paid should be equal to the current City of Delaware
income tax rate (or the reduced courtesy withholding rate) of Box 2.
The completed Annual Reconciliation Form and all attachments must
be submitted to the City of Delaware Income Tax Department on or
before the last day of February each year. Failure to file the Annual
Reconciliation Form with attachments by the last day of February
each year will result in a penalty assessment. Any questions

Department at 740-203-1225. Penalty and interest rates can be
