Ifta

different states have different tax rates each state wants there share of the fuel tax for the miles you drive in there state. even if you purchases the fuel in another state

if you buy the right amount of fuel for each state or buy your fuel in states with a more expensive tax rate. then use that fuel in states with lower tax rates you can get a fuel tax refund.

 

They should raise everyone’s property and income tax to really make it fair!

 

Exactly, I have never sent Ifta the first red cent

 

I have sent ifta plenty of money. You pay the tax regardless of where you buy fuel. Sometimes it's better to pay that tax at the pump, other times its better to pay it at the end of the quarter. It's all about buying fuel at the cheapest before tax amount.

Every one that is ultimately responsible for fuel tax should print up a list of the state fuel taxes to keep in the truck so they can at a quick glance figure out the true cost of fuel along a route and plan accordingly.

 

I buy most of my fuel in Arkansas when I leave out. I leave full no further than I normally run o don't need much to get home. Seems to work

 

i end up owing a few hundred dollars at the end of the quarter whenever i run a lot of Canadian miles. its cheaper to fuel in nd and pay the difference in fuel tax than to buy Canadian fuel. plus saves me from doing a lot of math on the books.....lol
