Registration Information for New Employers
To register to file with LCTCB for both Earned Income Tax and Local Services Tax, please click the Employer eReporting link below and enter the organization information for the entity you wish to register. An eReporting registration is only needed if you will be filing and paying the taxes yourself. If a third-party provider will be filing and paying on your behalf, please call our office or email our employer department to register your business.
You must enter a Lancaster County address and PSD code in the Physical Location section when registering.
The registration process is complete once you enter a username of your own creation and the email address you will use for contact information (the last screen is called the User Profile). Once we have received the registration information, you will receive email verification. The information submitted will be verified and another email will be sent (usually within 24 hours). When the 2nd email is received, you will click on a link and create a password to log in.
For third-party providers, the process is the same except choose “third party provider’ as the type of account you wish to create on the log in screen.
