State tax filing

To avoid being double-taxed in your home state of PA, edit your PA return:

  1. Select Go over Pennsylvania again.
  2. After several screens confirming your county information and residency status, you will come to Compensation Summary
  3. Select Edit on Compensation Summary next to the DE income from your W-2.

  4. Select Entire amount of this income is not taxable in PA.

  5. The next screen, Adjust this amount should now have the PA taxable amount correct from your employer.

  6. Several screens later, you should come to Taxes paid to other state(s) summary. This will provide a credit on your PA return for the taxes you paid to DE on your income.
