You can also visit the department's website, www.revenue.pa.gov, to find other information on filing your personal income tax return.

What is ERO signature?

Taxpayers, who currently use Forms 8878 or 8879 to sign electronic Forms 1040 federal tax returns or filing extensions, can use an e-signature to sign and electronically submit these forms to their Electronic Return Originator (ERO).

What is Preparer ERO PIN?

An Electronic Return Originator (ERO) PIN is a numeric representation of the preparer's signature used on Form 8879. It's not assigned by any taxing agency, but rather self-selected. It can be any 5-digit number other than all 9's or all 0's.

Who must file form 8879?

Complete Form 8879 when the Practitioner PIN method is used or when the taxpayer authorizes the ERO to enter or generate the taxpayer's personal identification number (PIN) on his or her e-filed individual income tax return. Don't send this form to the IRS. The ERO must retain Form 8879.

Does PA-40 attach w2?

PA-40 Schedule W-2S has been eliminated. All copies of Forms W-2, 1099-R, 1099-MISC, 1099-NEC and any other documents reporting compensation must be included with the tax return.

Is 8879 required?

Are taxpayers required to sign Forms 8878 or 8879 electronically? No. Taxpayers may continue to use a handwritten signature and return the form to the ERO in-person, via U.S. mail, private delivery, fax, e-mail, or an Internet website.

What is the difference between ERO and paid preparer?

Is there a difference between an ERO and a paid preparer? Many paid tax preparers are EROs. But an ERO may also electronically file returns that were collected from a taxpayer. An ERO can also arrange with another authorized IRS e-file provider to transmit the return.
