IRS Provides Temporary Tax Relief for Dyed Diesel Fuel Use in Illinois
What happened
The IRS issued guidance related to President Donald Trump’s executive order concerning dyed diesel fuel. This guidance provides temporary federal relief for highway use of dyed diesel between October 1 and December 31. During this relief period, users are not required to file Form 720 solely to report dyed diesel tax liability, nor are they required to maintain records solely for that liability.
