2024 Pennsylvania Form 40

What Is Pennsylvania Form 40?

Pennsylvania Form 40 is used by full-year residents, part-year residents, and nonresidents to file their state income tax return. The purpose of Form PA-40 is to determine your tax liability for the state of Pennsylvania. Nonresident and part-year resident filers will enter their residency status on the first page of the form.

You may be required to file a Pennsylvania income tax return even though you are not required to file a federal income tax return. You must also file if you incurred a loss from any transaction as an individual, sole proprietor, partner in a partnership, or S corporation, for example.
