Stack: Revenue Department Local Office Provides State Tax Help

PHILADELPHIA, APRIL 15, 2009 - Residents who need assistance doing their state taxes can receive free help here in Northeast Philadelphia, according to state Sen. Mike Stack.

The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue’s district office, located at the Academy Plaza Shopping Center, offers the same services as the department’s headquarters in Harrisburg.

“District offices are valuable connections to statewide services. For the same reason that I have several offices in Northeast Philadelphia to serve my constituents, the Department of Revenue also offers a direct connect to state services,” Stack said. “This is a trusted, reliable office that you can stop in or call to speak to staff, who have the same reliable information and records as the office in Harrisburg.”

Residents may get information on all state taxes, tax forms and public information, state licenses, services for new and small businesses, payments on tax accounts and assistance completing and filing personal income tax returns and property tax/rent rebate applications.

The Department of Revenue district office is located at 3240 Red Lion Road. For more information, stop in, call 215-821-1860 or visit www.revenue.state.pa.us
