Pennsylvania Payroll

Did you know that Pennsylvania has reciprocal withholding agreements with Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia and West Virginia?

Pennsylvania Income Tax Withholding

Pennsylvania requires employers to withhold state income tax from their employees' wages and remit the amounts withheld to the Revenue Department.

Every employer that has an office or does business in Pennsylvania that pays compensation must withhold state income tax from each payment of wages to employees. Tax must be withheld from wages of resident employees for services performed either within or outside Pennsylvania and from wages of nonresident employees for services within the state.
