Hey, it’s Amber with ExpressTruckTax, and we get the question a lot: What is the due date for the Form 2290? And sometimes, that’s a trick question because there can be multiple due dates depending on if you’re putting new trucks on the road. But when you’re talking about the annual Form 2290, the due date to file and pay is August 31st.
We offer what we call pre-filing here at ExpressTruckTax, and that gives you a couple extra months to go ahead and file the 2290. We keep it on hold and transmit it to the IRS as soon as they begin accepting returns on July 1st. And then, you have until August 31st to make that payment.
So, there are a couple of different payment options. If you choose to pay with a credit card through ExpressTruckTax, that’s going to come out right there in the first week of July. If you choose check or money order, you have until the end of July to pay.
There’s EFTPS, there’s credit card through the IRS, and there is electronic funds withdrawal. So, there are five different payment types that you can choose. But that just depends on when you’re making the payment.
So go ahead and file your Form 2290 for the 2023-2024 tax year starting now at ExpressTruckTax.com. Go ahead and get the paperwork side of it out of the way so that you’re not wondering, “Oh gosh, it’s not hanging over your head, wondering when do I have to do it?” All summer long, you can go on with your business and drive without wondering when it’s due. And then, you can make that payment later.
