Deadline Alert! Form 2290 HVUT is mandatory for all taxable heavy vehicles to operate on the public highways of the United States successfully. Every trucker and trucking company with taxable vehicles should file Form 2290 and report their truck taxes to the IRS each year during the tax period, usually starting on the first of July.
Apart from July, the regular tax month, the IRS charges pro-rated truck taxes for the trucks that are recently purchased or first used in the middle of the tax period or any other month other than July. The general tax period starts on the first of July every year and ends on the last of June the following year. So, the trucks with the first used month other than July should estimate their 2290 truck taxes pro-rated from the first used month to June.
The deadline for reporting Form 2290 for February used trucks.
The last date to file Form 2290 pro-rated tax returns is the end of the following month of the heavy vehicle’s first used month. In this case, your first used month is February 2024. Therefore, you should estimate the truck tax amount from January to June 2024 and report the 2290 partial period or pro-rated tax returns by the end of March. Since March is ending on a weekend (Sunday), the deadline gets rolled over to the following working day, April 1, 2024. So, don’t wait until the last minute.
