GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
A return must be filed for each period even if no operations were conducted in Colorado
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS
Line 1: Enter passenger mile tax from Form DR 7011. Follow detailed instructions on that form to
calculate passenger mile tax. Indicate a zero (0) if you did not operate in Colorado.
Line 2: Credit for passenger mile tax paid at ports must be claimed within the reporting period that
payment was made. Credit is allowed only if tax liability is reported on this return. No credit is
allowed for permit fees such as PUC fees, fuel permit fees, etc. collected at ports.
Line 3: If line 2 exceeds line 1, refund of the excess will be made. Refunds may be claimed only for the
period filed and will not be offset against prior or future tax liabilities. Do not complete line 3 if there
is a balance due on line 4.
Line 4: If line 1 exceeds line 2, enter the balance due. Payment is required with this return.
Line 5: If the return is filed after the due date, late filing penalty is due as follows:
Multiply 3% (.03) times the amount on Line 4, times the number
of months late.
LINE 6: If the return is filed after the due date, late filing interest is due at the current statutory monthly rate
preprinted on the return multiplied by the amount on line 4 for each month the return is late.
A return is a whole month late one day after the due date, and an additional month late on each
monthly anniversary of the due date.
NOTE:
The passenger mile tax is calculated as follows:
Number of passengers X number of Colorado miles X $.001.
This calculation is done for each bus and each trip. Add all
of the trips together for the quarter and record the total on line 1.
