June 16, 2025, Press Release from the Office of Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine:
Tax preparers across the region are working overtime to get last-minute returns prepared, filed, and submitted before the federal deadline. For those who have waited until now, professionals are offering guidance to avoid costly mistakes.
Starting Tuesday, April 1, all permits, licensing applications, and building plan submissions can be completed electronically. The department is transitioning to SmartGov, an online permitting and licensing system. Officials say the new process will reduce the current 29-day turnaround to 14 days or less.
