Resident EIT = municipal share + Palmyra Area 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: North Londonderry Township 380601, Palmyra Borough 380602, South Londonderry Township 380603.

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 Palmyra 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 Palmyra Area School District's municipalities charge nonresidents 0%.
  • The LST follows your job: $52 a year in the Palmyra Area 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 Palmyra Borough (1% resident EIT) and earn $60,000. Working in Palmyra Borough, you pay $652 a year. Working in Cold Spring Township (0% nonresident EIT, None LST), you pay $600: Earned Income Tax (resident rate, Palmyra Borough + Palmyra Area School District) $600. Your resident rate is at least as high as Cold Spring Township's nonresident rate, so your EIT does not change.
