Unclaimed income tax refunds worth more than $1.5 billion await an estimated 1.4 million individual taxpayers who did not file a 2016 federal income tax return, according to the Internal Revenue Service.
“The IRS wants to help taxpayers who are owed refunds but haven’t filed their 2016 tax returns yet,” said IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig. “Time is quickly running out for these taxpayers. There’s only a three-year window to claim these refunds, and the window closes on July 15. To claim the refund, a return for tax year 2016 must be filed by July 15, 2020.”
During this unprecedented crisis, while families and employees are staying safe home, the trucking industry is there to ensure the most critical goods are delivered to U.S. communities. Truckers making it possible to deliver essentials across the country knowing that they are getting exposed. The nation’s 3 million truck drivers are unsung heroes of the coronavirus crisis, working overtime to keep the critical supply chain moving. We salute them for the Selfless Service and helping all the Front Liners equipped with essentials. Let this July be a new beginning for us to move forward from crisis to recovery.
This July we’re celebrating our independence and we wish every one a Happy 4th of July. It is also the time of the year, the federal vehicle use tax form 2290 for this new tax year July 2020 through June 2021 is up for renewal. The Form 2290 and Schedule 1 has to be reported and get it stamped to show that as a proof of payment to have the vehicles registered under your authority with the federal agencies.
This is the same time of the year to report or renew your Form 2290 heavy motor vehicle use tax with the IRS and to receive the stamped Schedule -1 proof. Because you need to renew and register your vehicles with the states authorities.

We at TaxExcise at this time of a global crisis do understand your needs,
and wouldn’t want you to miss out on the upcoming deadlines. The clock is
ticking, as businesses are closed your work is piling up, that strict timeline
is looming over your head and it’s seemingly more and more unlikely that you
will meet the deadline. Even though the deadline for a considerable number of
forms and payments have been postponed, there are still a handful of tax forms
that have not been extended by the IRS and Form 2290, Form 720 and IFTA are
namely a few.
Form720 is filed every quarter to report taxes imposed on the manufacture, sale or
use of certain type of goods and products, the deadline to have this reported
for the 1st quarter of 2020 is April 30.
Due to the current situation with the lockdown still in effect, the most
common question we had come across is “Do we still need to file form 720 if we do not have any excise tax to
report?“
The answer is “Yes”, though you
have not made any sale that includes Excise tax you will still need to file
form 720 by reporting a Zero Return (Zero
Tax Liability).
Form2290 needs no introduction, as most truckers are
already aware that this form needs to be completed when a vehicle is first used
or placed into service during a tax year. The April 30th deadline is
for trucks that started operations and were first used anytime during the month
of March.
Preparing your IFTA tax report
is fast, easy and more convenient when done online. Prepare your report for the
First Quarter of 2020 before the April 30th deadline.
This April deadline happens to be the one that always stands out as it
revolves around 3 tax forms that serve a different purpose. You can always
depend on our E-file services that is currently open and processing returns
