Reply to comment by IndependentCode8743 in Landmark Pa. school funding case decided: The state’s system is unconstitutional by Hashslingingslashar

I pay a wage tax to work in Reading because I don’t live there. Is it like that for Philly? Live and work there, no tax, commute in, get taxed.

I haven’t actually worked in Reading for 3 years as I am remote now. I still pay it. Not gonna complain because I would like Reading to get it’s shit together.

If you live in the city or work in the city you need to pay the tax. So if you live outside the city and are now a remote employee you do not need to pay the tax.

I live in the city and work outside the city, so I pay the tax regardless if I am remote or in the office.

NYC is in a legal battle with NJ/Conn over this issue as its tax base took a serious hit with remote work.
