DCED's Act 32 EIT Collection System

Welcome to DCED's EIT collection system webpage.

Act 32 of 2008 provides for a restructuring of the Earned Income Tax Collection System for Pennsylvania local governments and school districts. This legislation is one of the most significant pieces of local tax legislation that has been enacted in recent years. The Act provides for a three year transition period and full implementation by January 2012. It is critical that all those involved in the system actively participate and fulfill their various responsibilities.

Since the passage of Act 32, the Governor's Center for Local Government Services has formed an advisory committee, provided training and continues to provide technical assistance and resource materials.

In order to assist municipalities with the implementation of this Act, DCED will update this page with DCED's latest resources, current updates and general information about Act 32. For questions, please contact us at 1-888-2-CENTER.
