We are in the process of moving to PA; DH has been there since October and I'm waiting to join him. We found out about the EIT so I went on-line to read about and find information. Now I'm somewhat confused. Does everybody who earns money in PA actually fill out a quarterly and year-end EIT tax form and mail it in? That sounds so bizarre to me. My DH's employer does not withhold the tax so we did a fourth quarter return and sent in a check. Our Town Manager told me that even if the e'r withholds it we still have to do the quarterly/annual return. Is this just strange to me because its new? Seems like just another burdensome and inefficient way to get more tax $. The other part is what is considered EIT...I read that info as well but am still confused. What about investments where you get annual dividends or just plain interest on a regular savings account?

Appreciate your input. TIA
