Pennsylvania: The Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development reminds taxpayers of the applicability of Act 32. The Act, signed into law in 2008, requires uniform withholding of earned income taxes (EIT) and remittance to a single local collector or officer and applies to the earned income taxes levied and collected after December 31, 2011. Employers must begin to withhold the local EIT from employees on January 1, 2012. Appointed tax officers start collecting the EIT on January 1, 2012, unless the tax collection district has opted for early implementation. The department's website has links to employee and employer responsibilities summarized in a FAQ format. Subscribers can access the website at http://www.newpa.com/node/6710 or click here
