The due date is restored to its customary date (the last day of the month following the month of first use), unlike prior Tax Period July 2011-June 2012 where the due date for Form 2290 was temporarily changed for July, August, September and October. This means your HVUT is due on the normal date of August 31, 2012 for vehicles first used in July 2012.
When to File:
Form 2290 must be filed for the month the taxable vehicle is first used on public highways during the current period. The current period begins July 1, 2012, and ends June 30, 2013. Form 2290 must be filed by the last day of the month following the month of first use.
If you first use multiple vehicles in more than one month, then a separate Form 2290 must be filed for each month.
The filing rules apply whether you are paying the tax or reporting suspension of the tax.
Truckers must report the vehicle first used in July on the return normally due on August 31, 2012.
