    I started a new thread - to see if we can "compile a list" of states that have filings/requirements IN ADDITION TO IRP/IFTA and the more "well know" rapes (NY/NM/KY/OR)...

    Looks like I may just play in the SE, or sign onto someone else and let them deal with the headaches...

    I seem to recall if you're not plated for Or. and are headed there, get your permit BEFORE you enter the state VIA fax whatever.

    You used to be able to get an Oregon permit at their port of entry if you got there before their office closed. If not and you get caught you are in deep trouble. It is better to order it over the telephone or online.

    You will need to file IRP, 2290, IFTA, MC, DOT, state. Then you will also have to get your insurance squared away while doing all this at the same time.

    There's kinda a weird order to this...

    2290 should probably come first (can't get a tag without it).

    DOT can be filed anytime - as registrant only - then changed when you do your MCS-150 (MC).

    File the MCS-150.

    Insurance has to come before MC will go active.

    Can't get IRP before insurance goes active, but CAN get the Tag with the registrant only DOT - just can't cross a state line without the MC active - but you will get the docket number to put on the IRP app.

    IFTA is probably last in the timeline - again - can't cross a state line without it (or a trip permit).

    COME ON GUYS. NO ONE has any info to contribute on states that require additional filings for out of state carriers? http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...2-states-require-out-state-carriers-file.html

    KY does. I paid $5 for one trip through there my first quarter. You can file online.

    Also, don't forget UCR, you can't get NY's permit unless you have UCR filed.

    In my order:

    DOT, MC, 2290, IRP, UCR, IFTA (via fax for temporary), NM/NY/KY weight-distance-permits.

    HOLY shnikes! Well least I will be leased on to a carrier for a few years, maybe longer, until I get that all sorted out. Drive for a few years, figure out where I'll be running, then research those states taxes or 'fees' lol.

    Thanks for all your input.

    I'll take UCR over the old Single State Registration UCR replaced. $200 per truck, per year under SSR.

    Once you apply for your authority you should be contacted by those states that have their own permits, such as Kentucky and New Mexico. You will also be deluged by insurance companies and others offering all sorts of services.
