## FAQ Highlights

- What is IRS Form 2290? Form 2290 is the Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) return required by the IRS under 26 USC §4481. It applies to highway motor vehicles with a taxable gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more.
- Who needs to file Form 2290? Any person or business that registers a heavy motor vehicle 55,000 lbs GVW or more — owner-operators, fleet owners, trucking companies, and any entity operating qualifying vehicles on public highways.
- When is Form 2290 due? Annually by August 31 for vehicles used during the prior tax period (July 1 – June 30). Vehicles first used after July are due by the last day of the month following first use.
- How much does filing cost? Flat service fee is $149 per vehicle. The HVUT tax itself is separate and owed directly to the IRS — $100 to $550 per vehicle depending on taxable gross weight category.
- What happens if you miss the 2290 deadline? Late filings trigger a 4.5% monthly penalty on unpaid HVUT (capped at five months), 0.5% monthly interest, and a 0.54% failure-to-pay penalty. State DMVs also refuse to renew registration.
- How long does it take to get the stamped Schedule 1? Same business day — the IRS typically returns stamped Schedule 1 within hours of submission during business hours. Filings after hours transmit next business morning.
- Do I need an EIN to file Form 2290? Yes. IRS requires an Employer Identification Number — SSN cannot be used. A new EIN takes about four weeks to establish in the IRS system before use on a 2290.
- Can I correct a VIN? Yes, through a 2290 amendment filing. No additional HVUT is charged by the IRS for VIN corrections.
