The federal heavy vehicle use tax form 2290 is due and the dead line is fast approaching… mark your calendar August 31 is the last date to complete reporting and paying your 2290 truck taxes. 

August 31, 2016 is Wednesday, your highway heavy truck tax form 2290 return would be due that day. Sometimes you just can’t get everything ready to file taxes by the deadline. So keep things ready well in advance and file your returns accordingly to allow some extra space to correct mistakes if any at the last minute.

For vehicles first used on a public highway during July, file Form 2290 and pay the appropriate tax between July 1 and Aug. 31. For vehicles first used on a public highway during July, file Form 2290 and pay the appropriate tax between July 1 and Aug. 31. If you place an additional taxable truck on the road during any month other than July that was registered in your name, you are liable for the Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax (Form 2290) on it, prorated for the months during which it was in service. You must file Form 2290 for these trucks by the last day of the month following the month the vehicle was first used on public highways.
