Don't forget to apply for your Special Purpose Entities (SPE) tax credit
by December 1 for the opportunity to re-direct 90% of your personal state income taxes to York Catholic High School.
SPE is based on tax liability, not income, therefore each taxpayer's situation will differ. Participants must be PA residents where at least one spouse is employed or has an ownership interest in a PA for-profit business. An individual or couple filing jointly must have a state tax liability of $3,500 or more to participate. To see if you qualify for 2019, you can find your PA tax liability on Form PA-40 Line 12 of your most recent tax return. 100% of participant contributions are distributed to the school.
You have to pay these taxes regardless, so why not have a say in how your taxes are allocated? Additionally, you will receive at least a 10% personal deduction on your federal taxes. The money you re-direct to York Catholic is for educational purposes, specifically tuition assistance.
