Back to School

It’s that time again!

Before you go shopping, know when and how you can save $$$ with this year’s Ohio Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday from Friday, August 7th through Sunday, August 9th. In general, qualifying purchases are limited to certain clothing items priced at $75 or less, school supply items priced at $20 or less, and school instructional materials priced at $20 or less, per item. This year’s tax-free allowances differ from years prior, so before you head to the check-out line, learn whether you’ll be charged tax on that laptop case you’ve been eyeing at https://tax.ohio.gov/business/sales-and-use-tax/sales-tax-holiday

Did you know that Ohio has a Tax-Free College Savings Plan you can use for your children or grandchildren? And if your child decides not to attend college, the tax-free funds can be used to pay for career center schooling, K-12 expenses, or be rolled over to a Roth IRA.

National Small Business Week & SpringFest 2026

The month of May features National Small Business Week. Small businesses strengthen the local economy by generating the most new jobs and by reinvesting within the community. They often provide superior customer service and products and help create a unique community culture. If you operate a small business read the article below for some ways to protect your business at ftc.gov/business-guidance/small-businesses and consider contacting J Ritchie CPA for your business’ bookkeeping and tax needs.

J Ritchie CPA takes pride in being a local small business in the Doylestown community.
