Pennsylvania’s General Fund revenue in January was less than expected, but the good news is the state’s fiscal year-to-date General Fund collections are above estimate. 

A new online system is now available to Pennsylvania business taxpayers to handle their registration, filing, and payment obligations for state taxes. Called myPath, the system serves as a one-stop shop for Pennsylvania taxpayers.

Last month, Pennsylvania collected $3.1 billion in general fund revenue, 6.4% more than anticipated, the Department of Revenue reported.

The state took in $2.9 billion in general fund revenue last month, which was $91.5 million short of projections, the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue reported.

For nearly a year, craft brewers have railed against a plan by the state Department of Revenue that would require breweries to start charging a 6 percent sales tax on all their taproom products, including draft beers served on site and six-packs and growlers to go. The state is scheduled to begin enforcing the taproom tax in July, but a legislative fix is in the works.
