Act 32 and It’s Affect on YOU!
Act 32 was signed into law by Governor Rendell on July 2, 2008 and completely restates the Local Tax Enabling Act (LTEA). This is one of the most sweeping changes to the local tax collection system in years. The key pieces of this legislation are:
- Consolidation of the tax collection system from over 500 EIT Collectors to 69 countywide tax collection districts.
- Provide uniform withholding, remittance, distribution and reporting, rules, forms and codes.
- Increase oversight, enforcement and accountability.
