Lace up! You’ve got miles to run! The Race isn’t over yet!

Truckers, now it’s about time to join the HVUT Form 2290 Pre-filing race for the period July 2019 through June 2020. Now Lace up & get going; never let procrastination take over you since it could cost your truck registration.

Fellow truckers it’s time to prepare to file your taxes and hit the road. The tax filing season starts by 1st July and Hope you’ve got everything prepared. If not we are here to assist you. There are certain things to remember to do a perfect tax filing. So here are some seeds of wisdom to keep in mind while filing you tax returns

What is Form 2290? For all the first time filers this is the form that is used to report you heavy vehicle and pay the taxes. On submission of this form you would receive a watermarked Schedule-1 stamp copy which would serve as proof of filing as well as a proof to report your Vehicle to the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicle) for new trucks as well as renewal of your old trucks

All you need to have is the VIN number a valid EIN number (more than 15 days since applied) and you good to go. These two things are to be entered correctly to avoid rejections or corrections which would incur you to spend more

How to determine whether you vehicle is taxable? Well do you have a heavy vehicle and have plans to operate over 5,000 miles (7,500 for agricultural vehicles) and the total Gross weight (Sum of Tractor, load and trailer weights) is 55,000 lbs or more? Then your vehicle is subjected to Federal taxes. The taxes are paid in advance for the whole year. Any heavy vehicles under the above mentioned are considered to be “Suspended Vehicles” meaning it’s exempt from taxes.

VIN Number: The VIN number or The Vehicle Identification Number is a unique code given to every vehicle which is of 17 Digit Alpha- Numeric characters. No two VIN numbers for any vehicles are of same. This is used to identify a specific vehicle in case of tax reporting or theft of vehicle.

The VIN number doesn’t contain the Characters such as “I, O & Q” in it. So while filing your tax returns make sure you keep this in mind. Else you might have to correct the form right away to evade tax penalties.

And the most common step which some users fail to do it transmit the return to the IRS. Users normally file the tax returns pay the service free and move till the payment conformation page. But you have to go all the way till the last page after service fee payment where you could see a Red Box saying “Transmit to IRS”. Click that red button and your returns will be transmitted instantly and you will receive the Schedule-1 copy with stamped water mark on it indicating the filing was done successfully to your registered email within 30 minutes

So these are all the small things that you need to be aware of while filing your tax returns. So why wait you also have an option to pre-file your tax returns by June and receive the Schedule-1 copy by the first week of July. Stay ahead of all the 3.5 million truckers across the nation.

It’s the last week to Pre-file your Form 2290 for 2019-2020!

Truckers, it’s the last week to join the Pre-filing race for the Period beginning July 1, 2019 through June 30th, 2020. Most HVUT payers have made use of this pre-filing opportunity and have Pre-filed their Form 2290 for the Period July 1st, 2019 through June 30th, 2020. Hence, now they do not want to wait until the mid of July before receiving the stamped confirmation back in your e-mail like the last moment e-filers.

The Pre-filed tax returns basically holds a priority within it by default when compared to a regular Form 2290. The IRS online servers would always process tax returns based on First Come First Served Basis. Hence, the Pre-filed tax return reaches the IRS servers sooner than the other tax returns hence in turn receives an expedited amongst other regularly filed tax returns.

Every year, there will be millions of tax returns recorded filed during the high time of HVUT Form 2290 renewal (during July & August). This is the prime time for 80% of the HVUT group to E-File their HVUT Form 2290’s hence the probability of obtaining a priority over your non pre-filed tax return might happen in a ratio of 10000: 1 unless if it was pre-filed before June.

While e-filing your HVUT Form 2290, be sure to use your Employer Identification Number over a Social Security Number since the IRS e-file servers will validate e-filed tax returns with EIN but not SSN. Having said that the EIN you tend to use must be at least 15 business days older before its usage over e-filing application.

Truckdues.com is rated to be one of the most trusted website among many owner operators for its utmost user friendliness and easy navigation throughout the e-filing process.  E-file the HVUT Form 2290 and receive the stamped schedule 1 back in your e-mail immediately.  However, this turnaround time is not applicable for tax returns pre-filed for the Period beginning July 1st, 2019 through June 30th, 2020 which will be processed by the IRS beginning 1st week of July 2019.

Got a letter off your VIN? Correct it via Amendment!

Tax filing for heavy vehicles is just around the corner and it’s time for some pointers to be given to our customers. While filing the taxes users normally don’t make any mistakes but if there is anything where they can go wrong it’s typing the VIN number wrong. Yes, it’s just a typo error but it does cost you for VIN correction and you end up paying more. That’s not a case with truck dues, we offer free VIN correction for the 2290 tax returns originally filed through us.

So, let’s go with some basics. A VIN number or Vehicle Identification number is a unique code which is 17 digits comprising of Alpha-numeric characters to denote a specific vehicle. The VIN number is never the same for two vehicles as it’s a unique code for each and every one. VIN number will not have characters like “I, O, Q”. Truck Dues website is designed in such a way that these special characters when included on your Form 2290 the website will automatically throw an error message. This is just a small measure to bring down the errors while filling the Form 2290.

VIN number is need to report your vehicles for tax returns and once done you will receive the Stamped watermark copy of Schedule-1 to your registered email which is a proof of tax filing also used to register your vehicle with the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicle). SO make sure you enter the VIN number correct while filing your returns.

But even if you enter the VIN number wrong it’s alright the IRS has started very recently to accept VIN correction forms through e-filing. This is the fastest and easiest way to get the correcting done. Within 30 minutes of submitting the VIN correction forms you will receive the corrected Schedule-1 copy to your registered email. Reporting VIN correction return with TruckDues.com is simple. Just login or create a new account and choose “Start my new return” and select “VIN Correction”.
