Truckers are always on the move, literally. They spend hours on the road making an honest living while transporting items from point a to point b. As they’re traveling around the country life doesn’t slow down for them, they still have the same tax deadlines as everyone else. That’s why ExpressTruckTax has taken a step to make life easier for truckers by providing them with the free ExpressTruckTax app that allows you to e-file the IRS Form 2290.
First, Here is a little about the HVUT Form 2290
The HVUT or Heavy Vehicle Use tax Form 2290 must be filed for every month that a taxable vehicle is used on public highways. The funds from this tax go towards the repair of public highways making the roads smooth and safe for truckers to use.
Qualifying vehicles for the Form 2290 include highway motor vehicles that have a taxable weight of 55,000 pounds or more. Highway motor vehicles include any vehicle that is self-propelled and designed to carry loads over public highways.
The type of load a vehicle carries as far as passengers, equipment, cargo, or supplies doesn’t matter because the vehicle weight consists of the chassis and body, not the load.
Your form 2290 is due the last day of the 2nd month after the month that your vehicle is first used. For example, if you first use a HVUT qualifying vehicle in February then your Form 2290 is due by March 31st.
Then after that for every year that the vehicle is in use during the taxable period beginning on July 1st and ending on June 30th of the following year, you’ll need to complete your Form 2290 by the August 31st deadline.
The ExpressTruckTax 2290 E-Filing App
The free ExpressTruckTax app allows for people who are out on the road to easily e-file their HVUT Form 2290 in a matter of minutes. Then they’ll instantly receive their Stamped Schedule 1.
