Resident EIT = municipal share + North Schuylkill School District share (0.5% for the district). Nonresident EIT is what the municipality charges people who work there but live elsewhere. PSD codes for your employer: Ashland Borough 540402, Butler Township 540403, Conyngham Township 540401, Frackville Borough 540404, Girardville Borough 540405, Gordon Borough 540406, Ringtown Borough 540407, Union Township 540408.

All of these rates come from a single official source, the state's Act 32 register (DCED); no independent tax-collector list covered them.

Living here vs working here

  • Where you live sets your EIT rate: 1% in the North Schuylkill 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 North Schuylkill School District's municipalities charge nonresidents 0% to 1%.
  • The LST follows your job: $10 to $52 a year in the North Schuylkill School District's municipalities, charged by where you work and split across paychecks; waived below $12,000 in earnings where adopted.

Worked example. You live in Ashland Borough (1% resident EIT) and earn $60,000. Working in Ashland Borough, you pay $652 a year. Working in Catawissa Township (1% nonresident EIT, None LST), you pay $600: Earned Income Tax (resident rate, Ashland Borough + North Schuylkill School District) $600. Your resident rate is at least as high as Catawissa Township's nonresident rate, so your EIT does not change.
