Act 32 Wage Tax Information
for all Residents
Everyone who lives in Pennsbury Village and earns
an income must pay a 1% Earned Income Tax, also know as wage tax to the
Borough. The 1% is then split 50-50 with the Montour School
District. Up until now, some employers withheld and paid these for
you, but others refused to do this putting the responsibility on the
employee to pay quarterly, some times yearly, and sometimes, never.
The Pennsylvania State legislature passed Act 32 which now requires your employer to withhold these taxes and pay them for you. You will soon receive instructions from your employer to fill out a form letting them know what taxing district you belong to. The following information will help you fill out the form. If you are a resident of
Pennsbury Village, Your employer should provide you with a form to complete. If you need, one can be downloaded by clicking on the Form Download button below. Also below is the link to the state website to look up other PSD Codes and a link to the Act 32 website to learn more about this change.

This tax is split between the Borough and the School District. If you are self-employed, use your net income to compute your tax payment.
There are no exemptions based on age or income level - high school students and senior citizens are required to pay the tax.
If not paid quarterly, your tax payment is subject to interest and penalty of 1% per month, from the time the tax was due until the time the tax is paid.
New residents should telephone Jordan Tax Service to receive earned income tax return forms or print and send the "New Resident Earned Income Tax Form" to Jordan Tax Service.
New residents should advise their employers, (if their wage tax is withheld) that payments are to be sent (payable to Borough of Pennsbury Village) to the above address for Jordan Tax Service.
