Why File IFTA Return On Time?


When you file your quarterly IFTA Return late you run the risk of late fees and/or penalties and interest.  A penalty of $50.00 or 10% of the net tax liability, whichever is greater, will be assessed on late-filed reports, failure to file, or for underpayment of tax due. If the net tax liability is zero or a credit, the late filing penalty will still be $50.00. To avoid penalty for late filing, the tax reports must be postmarked no later than midnight on the date indicated.


Interest is assessed on all delinquent taxes due each jurisdiction. The interest rate is 1% per month. Interest will be calculated from the date the tax was due for each month or fraction of a month until paid.


If the last day of the month falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the next business day will be considered as filed timely. The deadline to file your 4th Quarter IFTA Return was January 31, 2014.
