Common questions

Where do I mail my Pennsylvania state tax return?

It depends on whether you're enclosing a payment. For "payment enclosed," mail it to PA Department of Revenue, 1 Revenue Place, Harrisburg, PA 17129-0001.

Does it matter which Pennsylvania address I use?

Yes. PA Department of Revenue routes paper returns by mail code, so sending a payment return to the no-payment address (or vice versa) can delay processing, even though the state and ZIP still get it to the right building.

The "PA Department of Revenue". Write your Social Security number and the tax year on the check or money order.
