Pennsylvania Local Income Tax Calculator

Use the DCED address lookup for PSD codes and EIT rates. Entering your home address and your work address returns a six-digit PSD code plus the resident rate for where you live and the nonresident rate for where you work. Enter the applicable rate into this calculator.

Pennsylvania has thousands of municipality and school-district combinations, and the rate turns on a specific street address rather than a municipality name or ZIP code. Hard-coding a rate would silently answer the wrong question for many users, so the estimator deliberately requires the official address-specific figure.

Under Act 32 the employer generally withholds the higher of your resident rate at your home address and the nonresident rate at your worksite, and remits it to the collector for your home district. This calculator applies whichever rate you enter and does not resolve which one controls.

No. Philadelphia sits outside the Act 32 EIT system and runs its own Wage Tax with separate resident and nonresident rates, so the DCED lookup does not return an EIT rate for it. Use the Philadelphia Wage Tax calculator on this site instead.

The Local Services Tax is a flat annual dollar amount — not a percentage — charged by some municipalities and school districts on people who work there, usually deducted in installments through payroll. It is a separate levy from the EIT and is not included in this estimate.

No. Pennsylvania personal income tax is a separate state tax filed with the Department of Revenue. The EIT is a local tax on earned income, filed with your local tax collector on an annual local return, and the two amounts add together.
