The Form 2290 is the IRS tax form of the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT). Each vehicle, including trucks and tractors weighing 55,000 lbs and above, that travels on public highways must file every year. Filing is necessary for IRS compliance and for obtaining a stamped Schedule 1, which is required for vehicle registration or renewal at the DMV.

The calculation of the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) is based on the gross taxable weight of the vehicle. The IRS publishes a tax table based on these weights to compute the complete tax amount. EasyForm2290.com does the hard work by calculating the appropriate HVUT for your vehicle during the e-filing process in a manner that is accurate and compliant.

The due date for Form 2290 is from July 1 through August 31 for vehicles that are first used in July. For vehicles that are first used in other months, the due date falls on the last day of the month following that of the first use. Timely filing saves you from incurring IRS penalties and DMV registration issues.

A suspended vehicle is a truck that operates 5,000 or fewer miles in a tax period (7,500 or fewer miles for an agricultural vehicle during a tax period). Even if no tax is due, you must file Form 2290. At EasyForm2290.com, you can report suspended vehicles online in just a matter of minutes.

IRS Form 2290 is the federal tax form for Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) for vehicles that travel on public highways with a gross vehicle weight of 55,000 pounds or more. It is filed with the IRS annually, adhering to compliance requirements.

Any individual who owns or operates for profit a heavy vehicle (weighing 55,000 lbs or more) upon U.S. highways must file Form 2290. This includes owner-operators, fleet owners, and trucking companies.

Form 2290 is due on August 31 of each year for vehicles that were first used in July. Newly acquired vehicles are due the last day of the month after the first month of the vehicle's use. For example, if you first put your truck to use in October, your filing is due on November 30.

This is what the IRS imposes as an annual federal tax for the usage of public highways by heavy vehicles. The funds of this tax are used for road maintenance and infrastructure. The charging rate on HVUT depends on the taxable gross weight of the vehicle.

Suspended vehicles are those on which less than 5000 miles are traveled during the tax period (7,500 miles for ag vehicles.)
