    I have two state withholding on my paycheck.
    I come from MA and currently work in PA. I have moved to PA but since I filed my application when I was at MA, I have two state withholding on my paycheck. I now live in PA and work in PA. How do I get rid of MA state withholding? If I do this, will my PA state tax increase?

    Thanks for help!

    Now that you live and work in PA you should NOT be having any tax for MA still being withheld. You do not owe MA tax for your wages earned while you live and work in PA. Talk to your payroll department to get this cleared up. PA has a lower tax rate than MA, so you should see the total amount of your withholding decrease.
