The Idaho Tax Commission is making changes to filing policies as it tries to reduce the amount it pays in postage to mail paper returns.

“Mailing costs have dramatically increased in the last two years,” said Tax Commission Chairman Jeff McCray.

In fiscal year 2025, the agency mailed more than 340,000 returns.

Changes:

• Businesses with tax permits who’ve been filing their tax returns by paper will be required to file their returns online through Taxpayer Access Point starting with their 2026 returns.

• Businesses filing a 2025 Form 967, Annual Withholding Report, along with W-2s and 1099s must file it through TAP.

• Other businesses that haven’t yet received a paper return that includes the December filing period won’t receive one and will need to file the return and later returns through TAP.

The average price for a gallon of regular gas in Idaho is $3.33, AAA Idaho said Tuesday.

That price is a penny less than a week ago, 13 cents less than a month ago, and 13 cents more than a year ago.

“Gas prices are on shaky ground,” AAA Idaho public affairs director Matthew Conde said. “A degree of economic uncertainty may be affecting prices from day to day, and that makes it difficult to forecast how much more we could save on fill-ups before the arrival of the Thanksgiving holiday.”

The national average currently sits at $3.08, less than a penny’s difference from a week ago, a month ago and a year ago.

Idaho remains in 8th place in the country for the most expensive fuel.

“Each of you, whether you served in combat or as support, in times of war or peace, made a sacrifice when our country needed you.”

That’s what Idaho U.S. Senator Jim Risch said Tuesday at the University of Idaho Veterans Appreciation Dinner.

“You put country above self,” Risch said. “While we can never fully repay the debt we owe you, we can, and must, do everything in our power to try.”

Risch was the keynote speaker at Tuesday’s dinner at ICCU Arena.

U of I President Scott Green thanked Risch for his efforts this year to ensure that ROTC programs would remain on the Moscow campus.

Tuesday’s program also included the Presentation of Colors and a POW/MIA Table.

Earlier in the day, the U of I held a wreath-laying ceremony to honor military members and veterans.

Idaho lawmakers this year allocated $8 million to renovate Targhee Hall on the U of I’s Moscow campus into a joint ROTC and Veterans Center to house the university’s military commissioning programs and services for student veterans.

“To all the families who serve alongside our veterans, thank you,” Lieutenant Colonel Matt Johnson (Ret.) said. “To our veterans, thank you for your past and continued service to our country and to our communities. We are better because of you.”
