IFTA DECALS

I had a problem with the website for Pa, so I could not order my stickers.

I went to the motor fuel office, but they are closed for covid. Finally, I got an appointment for Tuesday.

She said the stickers are good until the end of Feb. She said all of the staes should respect that because it is a multi state agreement.

Get an appointment as soon as you can, definitely by the end of Feb. But you'll be ok until then.

That's the best advice I can give you.

 

MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: RE: IFTA Licensees and Member Jurisdictions IFTA, Inc. Team www.iftach.org October 1, 2020 IFTA Credential Grace Period

This Memorandum is being issued in an effort to clarify the above-referenced.
Thee IFTA Articles of Agreement, Section R655 provides: R655 GRACE PERIOD .100 .200
Carriers from new member jurisdictions shall be allowed a two-month grace period from the date of the new member's IFTA program implementation to display the IFTA license and decals. However, carriers must maintain the proper credentials for traveling in member jurisdictions until they display the valid IFTA license and decals.

Carriers renewing their IFTA license and decals have a two-month grace period (January and February) to display the renewal IFTA license and decals. To operate in IFTA jurisdictions during this grace period, carriers must display either valid current or prior year IFTA license and decals from the jurisdiction in which they were operating or a valid single-trip permit from the IFTA jurisdiction in which they are operating.

Because there are no new member jurisdictions implementing the IFTA in 2018, R655.200 above is the applicable language for the grace period in 2021.
Carriers must display one or more of the following to travel through IFTA member jurisdictions for the first two months of 2021. 1) A valid 2021 IFTA license and two IFTA decals issued by an IFTA member jurisdiction.
2) A valid 2020 IFTA license and two IFTA decals from an IFTA member jurisdiction (if a renewal application has been filed for 2021); or
3) A valid trip permit issued by the IFTA member jurisdiction through which they are operating.

Please be advised that IFTA License Renewals for 2021 MUST BE FILED WITH YOUR BASE JURISDICTION BEFORE THE END OF 2020.
Thee two-month grace period is for display of renewal credentials, not to file your renewal application for those credentials (See R655.200 above).
In order to have a seamless operation into the new calendar year, we encourage you to file your renewal application with your base jurisdiction well before December 31, 2020.

R630 of the IFTA Articles of Agreement provides: Carriers renewing credentials may operate with the IFTA decals and license two months prior to the effective date shown on the credentials. However, those carriers are responsible for filing a fourth quarter report for the year preceding the effective date of the new credentials, including all operations for that quarter.

If you have any questions or comments, please contact your base jurisdiction.
The above is from IFTA website.

You need to renew by 12-31-2020 you until the end of February 2021 to display new stickers.

Your company officials can change every year, doesn't really matter. Op you could be all three officers.
Good luck.

 

Its $500 ticket starting in april ...no one cares until then

 

Get a red marker. Issue solved.

 

@TallJoe to the IFTA thread... TallJoe to the IFTA thread. Thank you.

 

I believe you still have to file by the end of the year. But, it’s a 2 month grace period to display the stickers...

 

I called IL IFTA a few years back to ask about the grace period and from what I was told my understanding was that the grace period is for displaying credentials but the account had to be active. I don't know what the penalty is but I don't think it is too much. I'd just apply for renewal in that MyTaxIllinnois account ASAP, if there is still an option., if there is, it should be straightforward. As far as operating with expired account ... I don't know.
Call them tomorrow...if you hit a snag. They do pick up a phone by a person ... the last time I tried a few months back.
