If you’re planning to traverse the highways of Kentucky (KY), New Mexico (NM), New York (NY), Oregon (OR), and Connecticut (CT), ensuring compliance with each state’s regulations is paramount. 

In addition to complying with state regulations, you’ll also need to calculate and pay weight distance taxes. The amount of these taxes typically depends on your truck’s weight and the number of miles traveled in each specific state. Fortunately, the mileage data required for these tax calculations is already captured in your quarterly International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) filings.

Throughout the year, you’ll need to keep track of your total miles traveled within each state for the specified reporting periods:

– 1st Quarter (January, February, March): Reports are due by April 30th.

– 2nd Quarter (April, May, June): Reports must be filed by July 31st.

– 3rd Quarter (July, August, September): Filing deadline is October 31st.

– 4th Quarter (October, November, December): Reports are due no later than January 31st of the following year.

By diligently adhering to these reporting timelines and accurately documenting your mileage within each state, you’ll ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and avoid potential penalties.
