Page 1 of 6

NEW FOR 2012

• RCT-132 has been redesigned and is no longer year-specific.

• Line-by-line instructions for RCT-132 are now available.

• RCT-132 is available as a fill-in form on the department’s website at

• Revenue ID: For the 2012 tax year, a corporation’s Revenue ID is its seven-digit PA Tax Account ID OR a new, unique, 10-digit

number assigned by the department to a taxpayer, separate from any federally issued identification number(s) or Pennsylvania

license number(s).

As the department transitions to an integrated tax system, a 10-digit Revenue ID number will be assigned and communicated to

each taxpayer. A corporation’s PA Tax Account ID will continue to be accepted by the department on tax forms and schedules, but

upon assignment of a 10-digit Revenue ID to a taxpayer, the department will begin using the 10-digit Revenue ID on outbound cor-

respondence in lieu of referencing the Tax Account ID.
