I live in a township so there are no local income taxes for my residence.
The income tax is paid to the city where my office is located.
I do service work so am out of the state and or country much of the year.

Other state and local income taxes: $____”
While filing online, I got an alert here. I did not enter anything in. What exactly is the question asking?
