Today is Deadline to File 2nd Quarter IFTA, Use Tax & Form 2290 Returns

The deadline to file 2nd Quarter  IFTA, KYU, NY HUT, and New Mexico Weight Distance returns is today!! You must file a return even if you did not run during the quarter. You would just file a “zero” report.

Failure to file a return, filing a late return, or failure to remit any or all tax due will result in a penalty of $50.00 or 10% of the net tax due to all member jurisdictions, whichever is greater.  Interest is computed on all delinquent taxes dues each jurisdiction at a rate of .4167% per month.  Even if you have a net refund, interest still applies to each jurisdiction for any underpayment of fuels use tax to that jurisdiction and is calculated beginning the day after the due date of the return for each month, or fraction of a month, until paid. So the longer you are late, the more you will owe.

It is also the last day to file your Form 2290, if you first placed your vehicle on the road anytime during the month of June.

A Vehicle is considered to be a taxable vehicle if it was operating on public roads between the tax periods of July through June. A vehicle is also considered to be taxable if it has a taxable gross weight of at least 55,000 pounds and travels at least 5,000 miles during the tax period (7,500 miles if used for agriculture).

The deadline for 2nd quarter IFTA and Use Tax & Form 2290 returns is today, July 31st, so if you have not yet filed your return(s), you will want to file it now to avoid penalties and interest.  At Truck Services of North America, we make it simple by preparing and filing your quarterly returns for you. TSNA takes the paperwork out of your way.  Contact us at TSNAmerica.com or call 803.386.0320.
