Tax Exempt Truckers

Trucking and taxes go hand-in-hand. But trucking companies and owner operators in trucking who have an ICC number or who are leased to a carrier that has an ICC number can save on sales tax in some states.

Some states, like Oregon, Montana and New Hampshire, have no sales tax at all for any retail purchases.

Other states, like Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Pennsylvania, will provide a form to fill out and sign. If a trucking owner operator or the trucking company he is leased to have an ICC number, the owner operator (or trucking company) does not have to pay sales tax in those states for the items bought for their trucks.

Good luck trying to get out of paying sales tax at Wal-Mart, but at the truck stop shop, they’ll know what you’re talking about. Consider that if you are buying a full set of drives you may be paying retail prices in the $3,000 range. At 6% sales tax, you will save $180. That is certainly worth the time to fill out a tax form.

Most retailers in the trucking industry won’t suggest to owner operators that they may be tax exempt. The owner operator will have to ask if the shop or supply store will honor that provision. Tax exemption forms create more paperwork for the retailers, so they tend to keep the uninformed truckers in the dark about it.

An owner operator who wants to save on sales tax would be wise to buy his supplies in one of these states. Whatever state you are in, if you get repairs, maintenance or supplies, always ask if they have a tax exempt form you can fill out. They may or they may not, but it is certainly worth enduring an occasional blank stare in order to double check.

States that should allow tax exempt status in addition to those already mentioned are Kansas, Missouri, and Washington.

Should religions that discriminate against women lose their tax exemptions?

In many religions, women are excluded from the highter level positions. While they may have the "right" to discriminate on this basis, should our tax dollars support these activities? Where religious organizations have discriminated on the basis of color, their tax exemption status has been removed. Should not the same rules apply to gender discrimination?

Well yes but under the charter of rights freedom of religious freedom is guaranteed !00%. i mean the catholic church has made great strides of progresss in several important areas(they forgave Galilleo for being absoolutely right and that earth was not at thecenter of te universe, but rather was two third out aong one of the several arms of a spiral galaxy, they now also accept that the earth is not flat,beyond the pillars of Hercules there are no monsters ,but they claim women are not equal to men . So I went right to the source itself,the bible, and did achomskey on it:ther were 17 entries under 'woman' and 7 of that 17 were negative ie.,the head of a woman is man ;it taalks about women as temptresses and whores and it talks about the great whore of Babylon; man, is mentioned in a list of thirty where one of the items is :man is the head of woman jesus christ is the head of man.fathergarnered 39 entries while mothers only received21 entries. in and of itself thesenumbers are meaningless in and of themselves but after you get through the whole book from stem to sternyou have to admit thAT THE BIBLE IS A SEXIST DOCUMENT. i;'m sorry about that but it was written by men for men listen to this descripion "There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast..... the woman was dressed in purple and scarlet(not my colors at all)...
