Paying Taxes in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania residents and visitors are subject to many taxes. In addition to the federal taxes every U.S. citizen pays, Pennsylvania also levies taxes such as:

  • Sales tax: Aside from essentials like groceries, clothing and prescriptions, most products in Pennsylvania are subject to a 6% sales tax. In Philadelphia, the sales tax is 8%, and in Allegheny County, the sales tax is 7%.
  • “Sin” taxes: There are also additional taxes on cigarettes and alcoholic beverages.
  • Property and real estate taxes: Local counties, school districts and boroughs may pose additional taxes for those living or attending school in their community. There may also be extra taxes the year someone buys a house or moves into the area.
  • State income tax: As in many other states, Pennsylvania requires its residents to pay taxes based on their income. This applies to individuals, businesses and other organizations that are not federally taxed corporations.
  • Local income tax: Like the state income tax, residents are also required to pay taxes for the city, town and county they reside in.

Our Pennsylvania Tax Relief Program

While sales and sin taxes are included within the general price of products, all other taxes are your responsibility. Your employer may withhold some of your income to make paying state, local and federal income taxes easier. However, it is up to you to ensure they’re taking the right amount of money from your paycheck and to make up any missed payments if you aren’t contributing enough.

When you work with us at BC Tax, we’ll examine your past tax payments and help you find the answers you need — whether you’ve paid too much or too little. No matter your situation, our skilled tax professionals will work with you to understand your monetary situation and protect you as you work through your finances.

BC Tax was outstanding from start to finish. They helped me reduce—and in some cases eliminate—federal and New York state taxes across several tax years. A special shoutout to Megan Bridge and Paula, who were always available for my phone calls and emails. Their follow-up and follow-through were consistently excellent—something you don’t often see in business today. They explained every step clearly, set realistic expectations, and delivered results. I’m genuinely grateful for their professionalism, responsiveness, and care. I highly recommend BC Tax for anyone dealing with tax issues.

I had a WONDERFUL experience with Megan at BC Tax and highly recommend her and her firm!! From the start Megan was always SUPER responsive to my calls and messages and worked hard to keep me updated!! She was very professional and incredibly detailed and thorough and clear and patient in explaining all aspects of my case to me from the beginning to end on an ongoing basis as it evolved! Megan and BC Tax clearly demonstrated LOTS of knowledge and expertise in all tax matters and extensive experience in dealing with the IRS and thereby was an AMAZING advocate on my behalf! Megan and BC Tax works with high standards of honesty and integrity. Her work resulted in removal of most all of the tax liabilities which were were wrongfully posted on my account including the removal of massive penalties accruing over many years. More importantly I felt Megan took my case seriously and genuinely cared about me and about resolving my tax matter and I felt I could trust her and her firm to help me. I was correct and I am profoundly grateful!!! THANK YOU!!!

A friend mentioned BC Tax to me when I was dealing with IRS notices that kept piling up. From the first call, they broke everything down into language I could follow. What stood out most was how quickly they responded whenever I had a question. It made the whole process less stressful.
