No, TurboTax doesn't handle Philadelphia city taxes.

According to the City of Philadelphia, If you are a resident of Philadelphia or a non-resident who works in Philadelphia, and your employer is not required to withhold the tax, you must register for an Earnings Tax Account. A New Jersey employer isn't required to withhold for Philadelphia.

You can register for an Earnings account using your Social Security Number at this website: http://www.phila.gov/Revenue/businesses/taxes/Pages/WageTax.aspx
