NH rejected that one receipt I wrote on saying that it was not valid becase I modified it.  Since they don't return your receipts, you have nothing to go on to ask for a reconsideration. I suppose I could keep a copy of all the receipts that I submit, but haven't done that.
This year, I didn't write anything on any of my slips, but they all had my name from the credit card transactions. I didn't write any address on them, or mark them in any way.
They were all accepted. |
Since I trailer my boat to/from the lake, 99% of my boat fuel is purchased roadside. All I get for a receipt is the credit card receipt printed out of the gas pump.
The first time I submitted a rebate form to the state, I delivered it in person and asked them to quickly review it to make sure I didn't forget anything. The office worker there told me to write my name and bow number on each receipt since there was no identifying information on these receipts (other than the last 4 digits of my credit card, the date/time of purchase, gallons purchased, cost per gallon and total cost). I did as instructed and didn't have any problems. Over the years, I've done all my rebates the same way and I've never had a problem. I always keep copies of my receipts and my form until the check arrives.
You watch, now that I've written this, I'll have a problem this year.
As for the length of time to receive the rebate check, I have no idea since I don't remember when I dropped off last year's rebate form or when the check arrived. This year, I dropped it off in their office on Hazen Drive at 4:05pm on 4/15/2014. Nothing like waiting until the last minute! I'll just be happy when the check arrives (probably won't even see it until June).
I should be receiving a check for almost $64; that doesn't even come close to filling my 96 gal tank. Heck, it's not even enough to pay for the boat's registration but I'll take whatever I can get!
Time to start up the "Fuel Prices on the Lake" thread!
