EARNED INCOME TAX MANDATORY
WITHHOLDING
STARTING JANUARY 1, 2012
PA Act 32 of 2008 was passed to simplify
earned income tax collection for employers with a place of
business located in Pennsylvania. Under this Act, these
employers must collect and submit this tax to a single
collection agency starting 2012. Franklin Park along with 60
other taxing districts located in Northern Allegheny County
formed the Northern Allegheny County Tax Committee (NACTC)
selecting Keystone Collection Group as the designated
collection entity.
Under Act 32 employers must withhold and
remit earned income tax for every employee, on a quarterly
basis. Keystone collections, will then process the payments
and send the money to the designated municipality. Starting
2012 there will be NO individual quarterly payment cards
sent to you unless you are self employed.
All employees should receive from their
employer a resident certification form to be filed out for
2012. THE PSD CODE FOR FRANKLIN PARK IS 71-07-02 AND THE
TAX RATE IS 1%.
For the calendar year 2011 you should
continue to send your quarterly payments including the
fourth quarter and final return that will be due in 2012 to
Franklin Park Borough. Franklin Park will continue to
collect 2011 and any prior year delinquent taxes at least
until June of 2012.It is undetermined at this time the exact
date when everything including delinquents will be turned
over.
We strongly encourage you to clear up any
delinquent balances to avoid additional charges and fees
from Keystone for their collection efforts.
If you have any questions regarding this
transition, please feel free to contact us at 412-364-4115
ext 303 or 304.

Under Borough Ordinance No. 48-66 an Earned Income
Tax of 1% is levied on the gross earned income of residents.
1/2% of this tax goes to the Borough and 1/2% to North
Allegheny School District. Earned Income is construed as
income received as wages, or income from a business,
profession or farming. It does not include interest or
dividends received.
The tax is due quarterly, during the months of April,
July, October and January for quarters ending on the last
day of March, June, September and December respectively. The
final form is due by April 15th along with proof of earnings
for the year.
Exemption of quarterly payments are only for
taxpayers, if not withheld, earning $5000.00 or less, which
they may chose to pay when filing the final return. Earned
income tax payers must still file even if there was no
income for that year to keep their employment record up to
date.
If you work for a employer payments will be withheld and
sent to Franklin Park Borough by Keystone Collection Group.
If tax is not withheld, it is your obligation to remit 1% of
the gross earnings quarterly. All returns must be verified
with proof of earnings at years end. You owe 1% tax only on
earnings received during your residency in the Borough of
Franklin Park.
