Local Tax Collection Procedures
The Chester Tax Collection Committee (CTCC) recently
appointed Keystone Collections Group to serve as the
Earned Income Tax (EIT)
and Local Services Tax (LST) collector
for school and municipal taxing authorities within Chester County.
This important change was brought about under Act 32 of 2008.
Act 32 requires municipal governments and school districts in all
Pennsylvania
counties, except Philadelphia, to select a single tax collector
to
serve the Earned Income Tax collection needs of the political subdivisions
within the county. Keystone will officially start EIT and LST collections for
the CTCD effective January 1, 2011. This means that Keystone will be
responsible for processing payments for the 1st quarter of 2011 and there on.
