In Ohio, the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) program provides tax incentives to employers that hire individuals from one of 10 target groups — including veterans and those with a felony conviction or who were released from a correctional facility within the previous year. Credits are based on the target group and can range from $1,200 up to $9,600. Applications for the WOTC program must be submitted within 28 days of the hire date.
