REPORTING PERIOD – Quarterly reporting period for this tax
return. It must be a previous quarter. For example, if today is April 21, you
cannot select 2ND QUARTER (April 1 – June 30).
YEAR – The year of the reporting period, which defaults to the current year. Change if necessary. For example, you may be entering a reporting period for the fourth quarter of the previous year.
FUEL TYPES – Check the appropriate box for the type of fuel used in the fleet. You must check only one.
FILED DATE – Date the tax return was filed, which the system uses this date to calculate late penalties for the filing:
· MCS User: Defaults to the current date. Can be changed, if necessary.
· WEB User: Determined when the tax return is calculated. Cannot be changed.
· If the user is entering information around midnight, the filed date is determined by when the return is actually calculated.
RECEIVED DATE – Controls when the return appears on the transmittal:
· MCS User: Defaults to the current date. Can be changed, if necessary.
· WEB User: Determined when the tax return is calculated. Cannot be changed.
· If the user is entering information around midnight, the received date is determined by when the return is actually calculated.
NO OPERATION – Check if the fleet is not in operation. No other information is required on this page. Is this accurate?
AMENDMENT – Check if this is an amended tax report.
IN-HOUSE – MCS User Only: Check if this is an in-house return (created by an MCS user for a carrier who has not filed). This is usually done when the bond will be used on a revoked carrier.
