Any advice/help regarding this? I have never lived in PA.
Thanks!
Here is what I think that you are looking for. (f)(2) is the important part.
As long as your fight time over PA was less than 50% of your total flight time then you should not owe any PA taxes. Good luck fighting with the City of Brotherly Love.
