Abstract: Suppose that $ f$ (resp. $ g$) is a modular form of integral (resp. half-integral) weight with coefficients in the ring of integers $ \mathcal{O}_K$ of a number field $ K$. For any ideal $ \mathfrak{m}\subset \mathcal{O}_K$, we bound the first prime $ p$ for which $ f\mid T_p$ (resp. $ g\mid T_{p^2}$) is zero ( $ \mod\mathfrak{m}$). Applications include the solution to a question of Ono (2001) concerning partitions.
