    Where to Get Help for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program

    In-person support is available across Pennsylvania to help you apply for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program. When applying in-person, you will receive support that helps ensure that your application is submitted correctly. We encourage applicants to call ahead to schedule appointments prior to visiting these locations.

    Overview

    ​​​​Department of Revenue staff will be available at the location​s listed below by county to help Pennsylvanians who need help filing their Property Tax/Rent Rebate (PTRR) program applications​​ or Pennsylvania personal income tax returns (PA-40s).

    This in-person assistance is being offered in part to help Pennsylvanians who are newly eligible for the PTRR program following Governor Josh Shapiro’s successful work to expand the program for the first time since 2006.

    Inclement weather may impact this schedule, and it could be subject to change. Customers are encouraged to call their preferred location ahead of time to verify availability and make an appointment.

    Assistance is also available at the Department of Revenue’s district offices from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Customers are encouraged to email or call ahead to schedule an appointment.

    What Should I Bring With Me?

    Applicants who need assistance with the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program application (PA-1000) should check the eligibility guidelines on the PTRR Program​. The recent expansion of the PTRR program took effect on Jan. 16 when the new claim season opened. The rebate program benefits eligible Pennsylvanians age 65 and older; widows and widowers age 50 and older; and people with disabilities age 18 and older.

    ​Taxpayers who need assistance with the Pennsylvania personal income tax return (PA-40) should bring their tax information/income statements, a photo identification card (driver's license, etc.), and Social Security cards for themselves and their dependents. As a reminder, all taxpayers who received more than $33 in total gross taxable income in calendar year 2023 must file a Pennsylvania personal income tax return by midnight, Monday, April 15, 2024.​
