State tax filing

Yes, you are understanding that correctly.  

 

Go back to your W-2 in the federal section.  In the local tax section do you see right before box 18 a box that says Select a State?  In that box, you will need to select PA.  This is likely where the error is coming from.  This is different from your state entries in boxes 15-17.
