A: According to the Ohio Department of Taxation, a non-resident of Ohio who teleworks for an out-of-state business while visiting Ohio is not liable for personal income taxes in Ohio for the first 30 days of teleworking. After 30 days, the non-resident will be liable for personal income taxes in Ohio on any income earned from teleworking in Ohio. Your company would be required to pay into Ohio workers' compensation and other Ohio business taxes if you telework in Ohio for more than 30 days in a calendar year.
