Tax Return Summary  

This is your tax return which should be printed and kept for your records. You should change your printer setting to landscape before printing so that all the information shows on the printout.

Your return displays a summary of information entered as well as the tax, penalty and interest calculations.

Jurisdiction Abbreviation - Jurisdictions entered by carrier.

Fuel Type - Fuel types entered by carrier.

Total Miles - Total jurisdiction miles entered by carrier.

Taxable Miles - Taxable jurisdiction miles entered by carrier.

Taxable Gallons - Taxable Miles divided by the average MPG factor for the fuel type indicated.

Gallons Purchased - Taxpaid gallons entered by the carrier.

Net Taxable Gallons - Taxable Gallons minus Gallons Purchased. If Taxable Gallons is more than Gallons Purchased, you will owe additional tax. If Taxable Gallons is less then Gallons Purchased, you will have a credit which will display in parentheses.

Tax Rate - Tax rates for each jurisdiction by fuel type as provided by IFTA, Inc.

Tax Due (Refund) - Net Taxable Gallons times the Tax Rate. Credit amounts are shown in parentheses.

Surtax Due - Taxable Gallons times the surtax rate. Some jurisdictions apply an additional surcharge or surtax which is not included in the purchase price.

Interest - For late returns, interest is calculated for each jurisdiction which shows an amount due. Effective January 1, 2025, the interest rate is 0.75% per month. A partial month is considered a full month when determining the number of months late. For jurisdictions with surcharges, the Tax Due (Refund) amounts for both jurisdiction lines are added together before the interest is calculated.

Total Due (Refund) - The sum of Tax Due (Refund), Surtax Due and Interest Due.

Non-IFTA jurisdictions are listed at the end of the Operation Summary. All IFTA and non-IFTA jurisdiction miles are totaled and matched with the Total Miles entered and used for the MPG calculation to verify the return balances.

Penalty - A failure to file penalty $50 is applied to all returns filed after the due date. A failure to pay penalty of 10% of the tax due or $50 whichever is greater is applied to all late payments. If you have chosen to pay by check, the payment must be hand delivered to the Department or postmarked by the due date of the return in order to avoid the late payment penalty.

Grand Total - The total amount you owe or the total credit amount.

Credits of $3.00 or more will be automatically refunded. Credits of less than $3.00 will be refunded upon written request.
