PA school district underpayment penalty 2024

[jstan78]

I received a "delinquent earned income tax notice" from the State of PA for underpayment of taxes as a result of using turbotax.  I owe "1,098.80 that includes "Statutory Interest" of $84.46 and "Act 192 Costs" of $108.98.  This is the first time I've experienced this since living in PA since 2019.  Does turbotax pay for their mistakes like I'm having to?  I used one of the more expensive "editions" of turbotax b/c i have my own business.  Are others having this same problem resulting in higher, late payment charges?

Why do you blame TurboTax for your non-payment/underpayment of your local PA tax?   A school district tax is a local tax. TurboTax does not prepare local tax returns for PA.   This was your own responsibility.

TurboTax only prepares a few city or local tax returns as an extra step in your state return.  For most local tax returns you are on your own.  You may have to ask around amongst your neighbors, etc. to find out if you have a local tax and how to pay it. “Google “ local tax for your area.  Call your city government, etc.  Your only record of paying your local tax will be your own bank/credit card records

@jstan78 If in fact the delinquent school district tax was from tax year 2019---the year you say you relocated to PA---what have you done in the years since then to pay your school district tax?   If you have not been paying the school district taxes for all of those years, you are going to owe for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024---better find out where you stand with those.
