State tax filing

You do not have to file a Pennsylvania income tax return if you left the Keystone State permanently in 2020. Having a PA driver’s license does not make you a PA resident.

 

If you are temporarily out of the country but are filing a full-year resident return, choose PA nonresident on the screen “What county did you live in?”

 

You will not be asked the county question if you are filing a non-resident PA return.
