Frequently Asked Questions ### What is IRS Form 2290? Form 2290 is the Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) return required for any motor vehicle with a taxable gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more. It is filed annually with the IRS under 26 USC §4481 and funds federal highway maintenance. ### Who needs to file Form 2290? Anyone who registers a highway motor vehicle with a taxable gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more must file Form 2290. That includes owner-operators, fleet owners, trucking companies, leasing companies, and agricultural carriers operating on public U.S. highways. ### When is Form 2290 due? Form 2290 is due annually by August 31 for vehicles in service during the prior tax period (July 1 – June 30). Vehicles first placed in service mid-year are due by the last day of the month following the month of first use. ### How much does it cost to file Form 2290? Our service fee is a flat $149 per vehicle for managed e-filing. The HVUT owed to the IRS is separate and ranges from $100 at 55,000 lbs up to $550 at 75,000 lbs or more, with logging vehicles taxed at a reduced rate. ### What is a stamped Schedule 1? Schedule 1 is the IRS proof-of-payment document returned after your Form 2290 is accepted. It is required for vehicle registration renewals at the DMV and is often requested at weigh stations and during DOT inspections. We deliver your stamped Schedule 1 the same business day. ### How long does it take to get my stamped Schedule 1? We transmit your Form 2290 to the IRS the same business day you complete filing, and the IRS typically returns the stamped Schedule 1 within hours. Filings completed after business hours are transmitted the next business morning. ### What if my truck weighs less than 55,000 lbs? Vehicles under 55,000 pounds taxable gross weight are not subject to HVUT and do not need to file Form 2290. If your vehicle crosses the 55,000-pound threshold mid-year, you must file by the last day of the month following the month it first became taxable. ### Can I file a partial-period Form 2290? Yes — vehicles first used after July of the current tax period file a partial-period (prorated) 2290. Our e-filing system calculates the HVUT only for the months remaining in the tax period based on your first-use month, automatically. ### Do I need an EIN to file Form 2290? Yes. The IRS requires an Employer Identification Number on every Form 2290 — a Social Security Number cannot be used. Your EIN must be active in the IRS system for at least two weeks before it can be used on a 2290 filing. ### What happens if I miss the 2290 deadline? Late filings trigger a 4.5% monthly penalty on unpaid HVUT (capped at five months), plus 0.5% monthly interest and a 0.54% failure-to-pay penalty. State DMVs will also refuse to renew your registration until you produce a valid stamped Schedule 1. ### Can I correct a VIN on a filed Form 2290? Yes. A VIN correction is a separate 2290 amendment filing that replaces the incorrect VIN with the right one. We handle VIN corrections on orders we placed at no extra service fee; the IRS does not charge additional HVUT for corrections. ### What is a suspended (Category W) vehicle? Category W (suspended) covers vehicles expected to travel 5,000 highway miles or fewer during the tax period (7,500 miles for agricultural). You still file Form 2290 for suspended vehicles, but no HVUT is owed unless you exceed the mileage threshold. ### Will the DMV accept my Schedule 1 right away? Yes. Every U.S. state DMV accepts an IRS-stamped Schedule 1 as proof of HVUT payment for heavy-vehicle registration renewals. E-filed stamped Schedule 1s are treated identically to paper-filed ones by every DMV system. ## 8.
