Do I have to file tax returns seperately for local muncipality or township or boro in PA?

I moved in late November 2007 to Abington school dist. from Maryland. In MD county taxes are included in MD state tax returns (rate of 0.0283 of your adjusted taxable gross). For 2007 I filed both MD and PA are part-year resident. Do I have to file seperately for Cheltenham township government too or is it included in state tax. In my W-2 from PA, I see local income tax filled, whereas in W-2 from Maryland, I do not see one. Could some one clarify. thank you.

1. In PA, if you have earned income you have to file a separate local return for your township, boro or city - it's usually 1%, but is a lot higher for Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. It sounds like maybe MD doesn't have that.
2. You must file a local income tax in PA based on your school district. Go to your local post office or library and pick one up. Most are 1% of your gross income. Maryland does not have local income tax though in counties such as Baltimore you have to pay a "piggyback tax" for the city.
