Common mistakes

  • Using the voucher for another purpose. The 2025 PA-40 V is only for payment of tax owed with a 2025 PA-40 return.
  • Not paying electronically when required. Payments of $15,000 or more must be electronic. Failure to meet this requirement results in a penalty of 3% of the payment amount, up to $500.
  • Leaving identifying details off the check or money order. Include the primary taxpayer’s last four SSN digits, “2025 PA-40 V” and a daytime telephone number. Add the primary taxpayer’s name if it is not already included. These details help the department apply the payment if it becomes separated from the voucher.
  • Entering the wrong payment amount. The form reminds you to enter the amount carefully.
