Title: Fuel tax rebate reminder
Post by: Rick on January 15, 2014, 08:16:42 PM: For those that keep track of their boat gas and turn in the receipts for a refund,don't forget to get them sent off to Olympia.

I only had receipts for 592 gallons in 2013. I burned probably 300 more gallons at Neah Bay,but Big Salmon doesn't give a receipt that qualifies to be sent in for the refund. :tdown:

IIRC its about 18 cents a gallon.

I should have slightly over $100 coming back.

What does this mean? Any receipts that include the gallons purchased and the price per gallon from within, I think, the last 14 months, for boat gas, can be turned in.

I thought it was something like half the gas tax that was returned. :dunno:

Post by: Rick on January 16, 2014, 08:29:40 PM: The receipt has to include the gas station's name,address,phone number,cost per gallon,and gallons purchased.

Big Salmon's receipts don't include any of that.

If you are buying large amounts of gas in the future, you might ask the manager to hand write a receipt, for a good return customer, I would think they would be willing to do this. :dunno:

Post by: Skillet on January 19, 2014, 08:59:17 AM: Marina gas does not qualify, since it doesn't have the road tax included in the original price... not a ripoff to not get back a tax you never paid in the first place.

Yep. I run on-road diesel through my little tractor and get that tax back too.

Sure it does. Clear diesel purchased at the marina is taxed as well.
