Living here vs working here
- Where you live sets your EIT rate: 1% in the Austin Area School District (0.5% school district share plus each municipality's own share), on all your wages wherever you work in Pennsylvania.
- Where you work can raise it, never lower it: your employer withholds the higher of your resident rate and the work municipality's nonresident rate (Act 32). The Austin Area School District's municipalities charge nonresidents 0.5% to 1%.
- The LST follows your job: $0 to $10 a year in the Austin Area School District's municipalities, charged by where you work and split across paychecks.
Worked example. You live in Keating Township (1% resident EIT) and earn $60,000. Working in Keating Township, you pay $600 a year. Working in Coudersport Borough (1% nonresident EIT, $52 (waived under $12,000) LST), you pay $652: Earned Income Tax (resident rate, Keating Township + Austin Area School District) $600; Local Services Tax $52. Your resident rate is at least as high as Coudersport Borough's nonresident rate, so your EIT does not change.
