I have a local tax question. I live in PA, but I think this is more of a theory question than something specific to my location. Mid-way through 2010, I moved from a township that charges 1% income tax to one that charges no income tax. However I did not update my address formally in any capacity (drivers license, etc) since I was renting month-to-month and living with the owner. When I filed my taxes, I thought since my drivers license address didn't change, and I see that as the government's primary ID, that I wouldn't be able to show I moved halfway through the year. I already paid the full 1% for the year, however I'm thinking that was very stupid and I should submit an adjustment to get $300-$400 back. I do have a very informal paper that I am calling my "lease" agreement with the owner's signature and my signature on it, so I think that would hold as legal proof. And I could go back to the person I was living with and get something more official notarized stating that I lived there if necessary. I'm wondering if there is any reason I wouldn't want to submit an adjustment, or if there are any other consequences I should consider? I mean I did submit an incorrect tax form, however I didn't understand my ability to prove my location of residence. I honestly did live in the other township for half the year, so I see an adjustment as being the right thing to do. Thoughts? Thanks in advance for any help!
