(a) Where a resident of the Municipality is subject to a municipal income tax in another municipality, he shall not pay a total municipal income tax on the same income greater than the tax imposed at the highest rate to which he is subject.
(b) Every individual taxpayer who resides in the Municipality who receives net profits, salaries, wages, commissions or other personal service compensation for work done or services performed or rendered outside the Municipality, if it is made to appear that he has paid a municipal income tax on the same income taxable under this chapter to another municipality, shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by this chapter of the amount so paid by him or in his behalf to such other municipality. The credit shall not exceed the tax assessed by this chapter on such income earned in such other municipality or municipalities where such tax is paid.
(c) The Municipality shall grant a credit against the tax imposed by this chapter to every taxpayer who works in a joint economic development zone created under Section 715.691 or a joint economic development district created under Section 715.70, 715.71, or 715.72 of the Ohio Revised Code. The credit shall not exceed the tax assessed by this chapter on such income earned in such joint economic development zone or joint economic development district where such tax is paid.
(d) Effective with the 2004 tax year, except as provided in division (e) of this section, if tax or withholding is paid to a municipal corporation on income or wages, and if a second municipal corporation imposes a tax on that income or wages after the time period allowed for a refund of the tax or withholding paid to the first municipal corporation, the second municipal corporation shall allow a nonrefundable credit, against the tax or withholding the second municipality claims is due with respect to such income or wages, equal to the tax or withholding paid to the first municipal corporation with respect to such income or wages.
(e) If the tax rate in the second municipal corporation is less than the tax rate in the first municipal corporation, then the credit described in division (d) of this section shall be calculated using the tax rate in effect in the second municipal corporation.
(f) A claim for refund or credit under this section shall be made in such manner as the Tax Administrator may by regulation provide.
