As a transportation professional, you already know that the April 30th deadline for filing your taxes is fast approaching. What you may not know, though, is that serious penalties await those who fail to turn in their IFTA report on time. Fortunately, TruckingOffice offers powerful tools that can make completing this task easier than ever before.
Some Facts about Filing an IFTA Report
- Late filers are subject to a penalty of either $50 or 10% of their total tax bill, whichever is greater. The $50 charge applies even if you owe no taxes.
- Interest on late IFTA reports begins accumulating the day after they’re due. These penalties are calculated both by the month and by fractions of a month.
- Most states require, or at least greatly prefer, online filing. Those who mail their IFTA report must take a chance on slow delivery times and other risks that can hit them in the pocket, big-time.
The good news is that TruckingOffice is here to help you with the process. Our software offers powerful features like these:
