Hi,

I work in Center City Philadelphia, but live in South Jersey, so of course I pay City Wage Tax. I hear that there's a tax credit for this. Can anyone tell me the name of the form? I'm assuming that I can go to the IRS website and print it out....as soon as I figure out which form it is .

Thanks!!

You wouldn't be looking for it at the IRS- it'd be a state form.

Only tax credit I know of would be through filling out the 8850 form, but that is at time of hire.

There is a form to fill out which lets you credit the Philly Wage Tax towards the NJ state tax. Not sure of the specifics tho. I have seen member billb mention the tax situation before.....you should PM him.

You want to fill out a Schedule "A" on the NJ income tax form. However, you need to find out the Philadelphia Wage Tax amount first and then follow the instructions in the NJ Income Tax booklet for filling out Schedule A. There are specific instructions for the Philadelphia tax.

The instructions are here:
http://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxa...07/071040i.pdf
You want page 40 of that instruction booklet for the information for the Philadelphia Wage Tax.

You need to fill out the long form for your federal taxes and take a deduction on Schedule A also, I believe.
