Form 2290 tax filing season comes every year during July-August, and it is mandatory by every heavy vehicle user, business operators and tycoons to file and report form 2290 online or through paper. As this form doesn’t apply for any extension of time to pay your dues or file, you are mandate to file and report form 2290 by the due date, or penalties would tag along the late filed return.
There are different kinds of vehicles filed through form 2290. One of the obvious types of vehicles are regular or heavy vehicles.
If your vehicle weigh more than 55,000 pounds and is likely to cross 5,000 miles in the taxation year, they are categorized as heavy vehicles. However, vehicles that do not cover the average miles i.e. drive less than 5,000 miles are counted as suspended vehicles. These vehicles should file form 2290, but do not have to pay anything to the IRS. Filing form 2290 is important as the information is passed to the IRS about their suspension.
There are other types of vehicle as well, that includes agricultural, logging and exempted vehicles.
When we talk about agricultural vehicles, these vehicles are more like suspended vehicles, allowed to drive up to 7,500 miles a year. If there is an increase in the mileage limit, you need to file form 2290 amendment return and pay for the increased miles on or before the second month of increase.
The next type is logging vehicles, which are frequently used in the forestry area to transport logs and other logging materials from forestry area to the city and vice versa. And during this transitions, usage of highway is possible. These vehicles are required to file form 2290; however, the tax paid by these vehicles is minimal.
