In certain instances, taxpayers may not be required to remit payment, but still must submit documentation to show evidence that the tax is not due. The tax may not be owed if the taxpayer:
- Paid the tax to the wrong Pennsylvania community and only needs to move it to the correct jurisdiction
- Worked in and paid sufficient income tax to the City of Philadelphia during the tax year(s) indicated
- Worked outside of Pennsylvania and was subject to another state’s income tax during the tax year(s) indicated
- Reported income on the state tax return (PA-40) that is not subject to local tax
- Did not live in the community indicated on the delinquent tax notice for the tax years identified on the notice
Taxpayers who meet any of the above criteria can submit the required documents to dispute a claim online using Keystone’s e-Pay. Access our uploading documentation FAQ for step-by-step instructions.
