Over the next several weeks, representatives from Pennsylvania’s Department of Revenue will visit senior and community centers to help people file their Property Tax/Rent Rebate (PTRR) program applications.

This assistance comes after Gov. Josh Shapiro expanded the program for the first time since 2006, so around 175,000 people are newly eligible for the rebate.

Representatives will also be able to help people file their personal income tax returns.

Staff will be available at the following locations in Western Pennsylvania in February. Additional dates and times will be announced at a later date. The scheduled events could change in the event of inclement weather. People are encouraged to call locations ahead of time to ensure availability and make an appointment.
