Ohio is what's referred to as a client-reporting state for unemployment insurance. Justworks needs your company’s information to report unemployment taxes under your unemployment account.
In order to report, Justworks needs your Ohio Unemployment Account number and Unemployment Tax Rate.

How do we close our withholding account?
