This includes any person, partnership, association, corporation, electric cooperative or other entity furnishing public utility service under the jurisdiction of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission or the corresponding regulatory agency of any other state or the U.S. on Dec. 31 of the taxable year. However, any public utility furnishing public utility sewage services or municipality or municipality authority furnishing public utility services is not required to file RCT-127A. For more information, refer to Article XI-A of the Tax Reform Code of 1971 (72 P.S. § 8101-A et seq). REPORT DUE DATE, MAILING ADDRESSES AND PAYMENTS The annual report for the calendar year ending Dec. 31, is due on or before May 1, of the subsequent year. No extensions for filing are available. If May 1st falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, the report is due the next business day. The public utility must file RCT-127A by emailing it to the following address: [email protected]. For the tentative tax due, refer to Section 1102-A (c) of the Tax Reform Code of 1971 (72 P.S. § 8102-A (c)) and Page 2 of Corporation Tax Bulletin 120. Mail the Specialty Tax Estimated Payment Coupon (REV-423) with payment, separately from the RCT-127A to the address in the instruction section of the coupon. A fill-in version of the coupon is available on the department’s website at www.revenue.pa.gov. All payments of $1,000 or more must be made electronically or by certified or cashier’s check remitted in person or by express mail courier. For information on electronic filing options, visit www.etides.state.pa.us. A penalty of 3 percent of total tax due, up to $500, will be imposed for failing to make any payment of $1,000 or more using one of the three options listed above. After examining and verifying your PURTA tax information against county assessment data, the Department of Revenue will determine your tax liability and issue an official Notice of Determination by Aug. 1, for the applicable tax year. Any unpaid tax due must be paid within 45 days of the mailing of the Notice of Determination. SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS Please complete all of the following applicable schedules. If not applicable, mark a schedule as such. Please make additional copies of the schedules as needed. Parcel details may be reviewed online at www.purta.state.pa.us. Refer to instructions listed under PURTA ONLINE. Schedule 1 (Parts 1 & 2) – County Summary, Pages 2 & 3 Schedule 2 – PURTA Parcel Identification, Page 4 Schedule 3 – PURTA New Parcel Identification, Page 5 Schedule 4 – PURTA Deleted Parcel Identification, Page 5 Please attach additional information, such as local tax bills, for parcels deleted. Schedule 5 – PURTA PROPERTY - Pending Appealed Assessments, Page 6 Please attach a copy of the petition of appealed assessment for any active appeal. Attachments must include proof of continuance that exceeds one year from date of appeal. Failure to provide the requested documentation, timely filed with your tax report, may result in your stipulated market value not being accepted. Schedule 6 (Parts 1 & 2) – PURTA FINALIZED APPEALS – Compensating Adjustment Worksheet (for the current filing year plus four immediate prior) and Compensating Adjustment Summaries, Page 7 Please attach copy of an appeal resolution to support compensating adjustment. PURTA ONLINE The Department of Revenue offers utilities access to the online database used by the department and local taxing authorities to record information for PURTA. STEP 1 REGISTERING TO USE THE SYSTEM Each utility official desiring to use the PURTA online system must first register at www.purta.state.pa.us. ● Identify the utility. Multiple parties from the same utility may have access, but they must obtain individual accounts. ● Choose a User ID and Password, each between four and 10 characters in length. Do not disclose these to anyone. ● Complete the registration form by providing a federal employer identification number (FEIN) and contact information including email address, mailing address, telephone number and fax number. Contact information may be updated as necessary. ● Sign, date and save a copy for your records. File the form with the department by emailing the application to [email protected]. ● After you receive department approval of your registration, you may begin using the system. www.revenue.pa.gov PREVIOUS PAGE RCT-127 A NEXT PAGE PRINT 1 STEP 2 REVIEWING PURTA DATA The PURTA system provides search capabilities so each registered user may obtain general information on PURTA parcels, take a detailed look at specific parcel records associated with the user and see analysis of changes in parcels from the prior tax year. Users may download data from any of these searches for comparison with their own records. ● General Search. Users may select and view PURTA parcel records by county and utility owner. The search provides parcel number, utility and assessed value, and these records can be sorted by utility, county, school district and municipality. ● Detailed Search. More detailed information on parcels owned by a utility is available to a registered owner associated with that utility. This query permits an official to request records for a selected local taxing authority (county, municipality and/or school district) and PURTA tax year. Queries can be further refined by searching part of the parcel number or setting a dollar range for assessed value. ● Changes from Prior Year. A user selecting this query will receive a report for that user’s utility of parcel database differences among the current and prior tax years. Newly added parcels, parcels that were removed and parcels with changes in assessed value are listed on this report. 2 RCT-127 A QUESTIONS ON OWNERSHIP AND ASSESSED VALUES The accuracy of the PURTA system depends upon communications between the utilities that own the PURTA parcels and the counties responsible for keeping the real estate records. Utilities must resolve questions regarding ownership and assessed values with local county tax authorities. The PURTA database contains information provided to the Department of Revenue by each county. Suspected error in county information must be resolved with that county. The county must then provide the Department of Revenue with corrected information, when appropriate. CONTACT INFORMATION ● If you have questions please email the department at [email protected]. ● Business taxpayers and tax practitioners have the ability to receive and view department issued e_SOAs and correspondence electronically. Visit e-Tides at www.etides.state.pa.us and select the Document Center option for more information. ● To make electronic payments, visit e-TIDES at www.etides.state.pa.us. www.revenue.pa.gov PREVIOUS PAGE RETURN TO PAGE 1 PRINT

About the Corporate Income Tax

The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.

Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).

Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
