Question

I am a PA resident and I have multiple W-2s. My correct locality is 700102. One W-2 lists 630402 as my locality. How should this be handled?

What do I do when my W- 2 lists the wrong locality?

TurboTax Deluxe Online

In PA, when you enter this in TurboTax, your local returns are not prepared, so it will have no affect on your return.

However, if your employer withheld taxes for the wrong PA locality (one where you did not live nor work), you will need to file a return for the 630402 locality to call your local taxing authority for exact instructions on how and who to file with.

Do remember, many municipalities in PA require you to pay if you work in their jurisdiction not just if you live in it. Depending on your work location, you may need to pay to both the one you live in and the one you work in.
