How to E-File IRS Form 2290(HVUT) and receive a stamped Schedule 1?

The Process of Filing IRS Form 2290 and getting a stamped Schedule 1 can be rather complicated. Especially now that the IRS has delayed the filing dates to November of 2011.


A Stamped Schedule 1 is required in order to register a vehicle. So it can be very stressful to wait until the last minute to register your vehicle because you are waiting for the IRS to send you a stamped schedule 1. (For vehicles that need to be registered during Jul-Oct of 2011, the state DMV’s are required to accept a Stamped Schedule 1 from the previous year since it is not possible to receive a stamped Schedule 1 until November 2011)

Although these are the traditional ways of getting a Stamped Schedule 1, an easier way has come about in the past few years. E-Filing has become more and more practical as well as more efficient. An IRS-Authorized provider of this service is www.ExpressTruckTax.com.  Instead of waiting for hours or up to 6 weeks for the IRS to stamp your schedule 1, Express Truck Tax will get your stamped Schedule 1 in minutes. When you log on to the site, you can enter the information for the Form 2290, and Express Truck Tax will then automatically create a Schedule 1 based on that information. That form will be sent to the IRS electronically, and they will then send the stamped Schedule 1 back to Express Truck Tax, who will then automatically send an email notification of the file to the taxpayer. This document can also be faxed as well as emailed to the taxpayer as soon as the IRS processes the form. There are even options to receive a notification via text message. The form will be transmitted with a watermark as well as an IRS E-File logo since the document will not be physically stamped.

EIN(Employer Identification Number) Update for Federal Tax Forms 2290 & 8849

If you are filing for either IRS Form 2290 or Form 8849, you will benefit from this new information regarding Heavy Vehicle Use Tax. The IRS will now be checking EIN (Employer Identification Number) verifications in a much more thorough way than they have in previous years. In the past, the IRS was more lenient on the EIN verifications.  As of now, the IRS requires that all EIN’s be at least two weeks old in order to file with them. Thus, if you have recently applied for an EIN over the past few days, it would be best to wait at least two weeks before filing your Form 2290 or 8849.

This information will be most useful for individual Owner-Operators, as well as Service Providers that file truck taxes for various Owner-Operators. If you need to apply for an EIN, you can contact the IRS via phone or online through the IRS website.
