If you are a PA residentnonresident or a part-year PA resident, you must file a  PA tax return if:

  • You received total PA gross taxable income in excess of $33, even if no tax is due with your PA return; and/or
  • You incurred a loss from any transaction as an individual, sole proprietor, partner in a partnership or PA S corporation shareholder.

PA law does not exempt a minor from the above requirements to file a PA tax return even if claimed as a dependent on a federal return.

The executor, administrator, or other person responsible for the affairs of a decedent must file a PA tax return if the decedent met the above requirements.
