Q&A with the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue
Does Pennsylvania have any comments on the IRS regulations (effective Aug. 27, 2018) to combat workarounds related to the federal SALT deduction?
Nov 14, 2019
Pennsylvania did not enact any type of "SALT workaround" legislation. So, Pennsylvania taxation should be unaffected. The Department has no comment on the proposed federal regulations, nor has the Department been providing taxpayers with advice regarding the federal tax changes.
