Reply to comment by flaaaacid in Any way to legally reduce household income in Pennsylvania through charity/donations? by erock255555

401K contributions are taxed in PA. Distributions, including all gains are not taxed by PA.

Are they using PA's definition of taxable income for a federal program? I doubt it.

Which is a shame in my opinion. I don’t think people should be penalized for doing something responsible like saving for retirement.

Think of it more like a Roth 401K for PA purposes. I’m retired and it’s nice not paying PA tax or local income tax.
