The Countdown is On: Everything You Need to Know About Your Stamped Schedule 1

Getting your Stamped Schedule 1 is important. This proves to the DMV and the IRS that you are up-to-date on your Heavy Vehicle Use Taxes, and you are now able to renew the registration on your heavy vehicle.

Getting a Stamped Schedule 1 when you e-file is easy, but maybe you find yourself with a few questions along the way. Such as:

  • How can you tell if you really got the right document? 
  • How do you get a Stamped Schedule 1? 
  • How do you get a new one if you lost your previous copy?

Well we’ve got you covered, Trucking Nation! Here’s everything you’ve ever wanted to know about your Stamped Schedule 1.

The first and most important thing you need to know about your Stamped Schedule 1 is that it comes with a handy-dandy IRS e-filing watermark.

This watermark will be located very faintly in the middle of your Schedule 1 along with the date the IRS accepted your return. It should look like this:

Without this stamp, your return is invalid.
