e-TIDES Is Being Shut Down in February 2023
Business taxpayers are strongly encouraged to act now and set up an account on the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue’s (DOR) myPATH system. This is DOR’s new online system for registering, filing, and paying Pennsylvania taxes.
The DOR will be retiring e-TIDES, the prior online filing system for business taxpayers, in the final week of February. That means taxpayers will no longer be able to use e-TIDES to file returns and make payments after this date. Instead, they will need to use myPATH to handle these tax obligations. In addition, with many important due dates – including for monthly, quarterly, and semiannual sales tax returns – now is the time to create a myPATH account.
When signing up there is an option to migrate your prior account information from e-TIDES into myPATH. For a simple tutorial on how to do this, DOR offers a Migrating e-TIDES Access instructional video.

As part of its reach-out efforts, the DOR held a webcast on the myPATH system hosted by the PICPA on Jan. 12. It covered changes that will affect business taxpayers with the closing of e-TIDES and provided an overview of updates to the myPath system. View the replay.
If you need additional assistance, you may contact the department by email at myPATH@pa.gov or by phone at (717) 425-2495, ext. 72841.
