Why am i paying pa taxes on my pension and social security

 

Retirement tax questions

If you have a pension that should not be taxed in PA you need to walk through all of the questions on the PA return and choose "I'm eligible; Plans eligible"  This will take it out of taxable income.

Also, be sure you entered your Social Security under retirement income by clicking start next to  SSA-1099 in the federal return area.  That way, your Social Security will not be taxed.
