How to Use This Pennsylvania Income Tax Calculator
Enter your annual gross income, select your filing status, and choose your municipality to include the Local Earned Income Tax (EIT). Pennsylvania applies a flat 3.07% state rate to all income โ no deductions or exemptions at the state level. The local EIT is an additional tax withheld by your employer based on where you live.
Philadelphia residents pay the highest combined rate (6.82%), while most other PA residents pay 4.07% combined. If your municipality charges a different rate, select "Custom rate" and enter your actual local EIT rate.
The Formula
Local EIT = Gross Income ร Local EIT Rate
Total PA Tax = PA State Tax + Local EIT
Combined Effective Rate = Total PA Tax รท Gross Income ร 100
Note: No state standard deduction or personal exemption in Pennsylvania
