Taxable or Tax-suspended: Which category does your vehicle belong?

As per the IRS regulations, heavy highway vehicles must have a total gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more and be estimated to travel more than 5,000 miles (7500 miles for agricultural vehicles) on public highways to qualify for Form 2290 tax payments. They are considered taxable heavy vehicles. Truckers with taxable heavy vehicles must report and pay their truck taxes using the IRS Form 2290 and get a valid Schedule 1 copy. Also, truckers with heavy vehicles that don’t belong in the taxable category must report Form 2290 for their vehicles under the tax-suspended category and get the proper Schedule 1 copy from the IRS. But they don’t have to pay taxes for their tax-suspended vehicles. In brief, truckers with taxable and tax-suspended vehicles must file Form 2290 tax reports to the IRS in their respective categories and get the appropriate Schedule 1 copy on or before the deadline to stay in compliance with the law.

Everything about estimating your pro-rated tax returns.

Generally, a tax period starts at the beginning of July and ends next June. Truckers and trucking taxpayers should calculate their HVUT reports for the whole tax period and pay the taxes in advance during the beginning of the season. For the heavy vehicles that are newly purchased or first used on any month other than July, the IRS charges Form 2290 HVUT on a partial period or pro-rated basis. These taxes are calculated from the heavy vehicle’s first used month till the end of the ongoing tax period. The last date to report pro-rated truck taxes is the end of the month following the vehicle’s first used month. In this case, you must estimate your pro-rated tax returns from March to June 2024 and report the taxes on or before the end of April 2024.
