ROCK HILL, SC (August 29, 2022) — ExpressTruckTax, the market-leading Form 2290 e-file provider, encourages drivers to file Form 2290 before the filing deadline to avoid being penalized by the IRS. The Form 2290 tax year goes from July 1st to June 30th of the following year, and the official deadline to file Form 2290 for the 2022-2023 tax year is August 31st, 2022. Since this deadline is only two days away, it is critical that drivers file this form as soon as possible.

What is Form 2290? 

Form 2290 is an IRS tax form filed annually by drivers of vehicles weighing 55,000 pounds or more for the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT).

What is a Stamped Schedule 1? 

By filing Form 2290, the driver will receive a current copy of their Stamped Schedule 1, which serves as proof that Form 2290 has been filed. This Stamped Schedule 1 is required in order to get a vehicle’s tags and registration. If a driver is found without a Stamped Schedule 1 they risk being fined or penalized. 

IRS Penalties for Form 2290

Vehicles that travel 5,000 miles or less, or 7,500 miles or less if used for agricultural purposes, are considered suspended by the IRS. No taxes are owed in regard to these vehicles, but Form 2290 must be filed. If Form 2290 is filed late or the tax is not paid, penalties and fines will accrue for these vehicles. The fine for not filing Form 2290 is greater than the fine for not paying the tax, this is why it is important to do both. For every month the deadline is missed there will be a penalty of 4.5% of the total tax due for up to five months. If the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax is underpaid, there will be a penalty of 0.5 % of the tax due. Additional interest charges of 0.54% accrue each month that Form 2290 is not filed. This is why it is important to not only file Form 2290 but pay the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax as well.
