Ifta audit

I had it. They will just fine you, don't know how much though

 

That's the way to handle it but I wouldn't expect them to teach you how to do it. They should. It's the right thing to do but the government isn't your friend so don't expect any favors. They literally profit from your mistakes.

 

As long as you have records of where the trips went (invoices, time cards probably), dig out your fuel receipts and it'll be easy enough to reconstruct 10K miles a year. You've already paid a fair portion of the tax at the pump (assuming you didn't pull a real bonehead move such as running red diesel). Have everything ready and organized for the audit.

You'll probably get a penalty and have to pay back taxes, if any. Oh, well. Learn and go on.

 

I got ifta audit my first year and passed . I agree the record keeping they want you to do is a bit redundant.. but it's part of it.. arizona dot provides a trip sheet to fill out that makes it a little easier to keep track of every load and the info they want u to keep.. that's the only thing that saved me from getting disorganized

 

It’s too late to amend it now. Two things can happen: they can not pull that quarter and then it never happened, or they pull it and you just have to deal with the consequences.

But we’re talking about 2 or three tanks of fuel for a quarter. You can come up with the fuel receipts, right?

 

Ifta auditors use Promiles. They plug in zip codes from your log book, input data from your fuel receipts and see how the result matches your Ifta filings.
