Failure to Transmit your return to the IRS will delay your 2290 Acceptance!

Hey there Truckers, over this article we are going to discuss about the most common error committed by the HVUT tax filers whist e-filing their HVUT Form 2290. This error occurs when the tax filer is not aware about the fact the tax return needs to be transmitted to the IRS post preparation in order for being able to receive the IRS digital watermarked copy of Schedule 1 back in their e-mail.

During the e-filing process, most HVUT payers assume that they have completed the e-filing process right after they make the service fee payment using their credit/debit card. However, at times they forget the final step in submitting the prepared tax return to the Internal Revenue Service.

The HVUT Form 2290 is basically the Heavy Highway vehicle used tax return filed for trucks which comprises a minimum gross weight of 55000 lbs or more and the same truck is been used over the public highways for commercial/agricultural/logging purposes.

If the said vehicle needs to be registered with the state department of motor vehicle, the Form 2290 needs to be filed upfront and the IRS digital watermarked copy of schedule 1 is required during the vehicle registration is concerned. Unless the stamped schedule 1 copy is submitted, the DMV does not support renewals of License plates, tags, stickers and so on.

Reach our tax experts for your HVUT Form 2290 needs. Economic e-filing begins here as low as $7.99. It only consumes few minutes to e-file your federal HVUT Form 2290 and to receive the stamped confirmation back in your e-mail.

Claiming a Low Mileage Vehicle Credit- Explained how!

Hello there Truckers, over this article we are going to discuss on How to go about claiming a low mileage vehicle credit for trucks that are used quite inactively over the road. Most truckers are not really sure how to claim a refund on vehicles for which the taxes were paid full in advance during the beginning of the tax period.

The Low Mileage vehicle is basically claimed over trucks which were not used over the desired mileage for exemption during the end of the tax period. Almost on a daily basis, we receive queries from the HVUT tax payers saying that their trucks are not in service due to mechanical wear & tear, engine related issues, due to natural calamities etc.  

Now if such occurrences happen when the Tax Form 2290 was already filed for the subjected vehicle, the owner of the vehicle must refer to the odometer reading to record the number of miles the truck has covered until the period it was reported. If that seems to be exceeding the desired mileage use of Exemption (5000 miles for Commercial based Units & 7500 for Agricultural based units) No further action is required from your end.

On the Contrary, if the subjected vehicles seems not to have exceeded the desired mileage use of Exemption (5000 miles for Commercial based Units & 7500 for Agricultural based units) then you are entitled to claim a full refund on the taxes paid on this vehicle. However, you will only be able to claim this refund after the current tax period officially ceases.

You only have until December 16 to transition your full fleet to ELDs

While FMCSA still in Phase 2 of ELD Implementation, December 16, 2019, is a critical date as the AOBRD grandfather provision expires. This provision allows fleets that had AOBRDs installed in their trucks prior to December 18, 2017, to continue using AOBRDs for two years following the ELD Compliance Date. Beginning December 16, 2019, motor carriers and drivers subject to the ELD rule must use self-certified ELDs that are registered with FMCSA.

The ELD rule applies to motor carriers and drivers who are currently required to keep records of duty service (RODS) under the hours-of-service (HOS) regulations. Drivers who use the time card exception, and don’t keep paper RODs, will not be required to use ELDs. The following drivers may keep paper RODS:

  • Drivers who keep RODS no more than 8 days during any 30-day period.
  • Driveaway-towaway drivers (transporting a vehicle for sale, lease, or repair), provided the vehicle driven is part of the shipment or the vehicle being transported is a motor home or recreational vehicle trailer.
  • Drivers of vehicles manufactured before model year 2000.

However, a carrier can choose to use an ELD, even if it is not required.
