Pennsylvania does not require a separate state-level filing of Form 1099-INT for nonwage interest income.

Source citations
“The submission of Federal Form 1099 MISC/1099-NEC is required for payments of income from sources within this Commonwealth, regardless of residency status or tax being withheld.”
“Any person who: (i) makes payments of Pennsylvania source income that fall within any of the eight classes of income enumerated in section 303(a); (ii) makes such payments to an individual, an entity treated as a partnership for tax purposes or a single member limited liability company; and (iii) is required to make a form 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC return to the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States with respect to such payments, shall file a copy of such form 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC with the department on the due date of the form 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC.”
“employee W-2 wage records and 1099s must be submitted annually to Pennsylvania by January 31 following the tax year being reported. This includes 1099-Rs, 1099-MISC, 1099-NEC, and Annual Withholding Reconciliation Statements (REV-1667s).”
Additional notes
Pennsylvania participates in the IRS Combined Federal/State Filing Program but still requires a separate state-level 1099 filing. All W-2s, 1099-MISC, 1099-NEC, and 1099-R income statements must be submitted to the PA Department of Revenue by January 31 of the year following the tax year. Filers issuing 10 or more income statements must submit them electronically through myPATH; under 10 may file electronically or on paper. Individual 1099s are uploaded as Pennsylvania-defined CSV files, then reconciled by uploading Form REV-1667 (Annual Withholding Reconciliation Statement) at least 48 hours after the income statements. 1099-MISC/NEC and 1099-R require their own withholding account types (Other Income Withholding and Retirement Withholding, respectively).
Scope: Original 1099 filings with no Pennsylvania state income tax withheld. State agencies revise rules without notice; verify with the Pennsylvania state agency directly before you file.
