Hello, truckers! Form 2290 is an annual tax form filed with the IRS to report and pay the Highway Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT). This tax applies for heavy vehicles or trucks operating on public highways with a total gross weight of over 55,000 pounds and estimated to travel more than 5,000 miles (7500 miles for agricultural vehicles). Truckers with highway heavy vehicles or trucks must report their HVUT returns annually using the IRS tax Form 2290 to stay compliant. Otherwise, the IRS will take severe actions like charging penalties, late fees, and interest on the pending tax dues. You will receive the IRS-stamped Schedule 1 copy for your trucks only after the successful reporting and payment of Form 2290. Schedule 1 is a critical document required for the uninterrupted operation of your trucks. You must have a valid Schedule 1 document for vehicle registration, license renewal, insurance purposes, and more.
