How Form 2290 tax is calculated?

The Heavy Vehicle Use Tax is calculated based on mileage, weight, and months in use. Those vehicles less than 55,000 lbs do not have to file and vehicles that go annually fewer than 5,000 miles (7,500 miles for logging) do not have to pay the

tax. Heavy vehicles that are placed in service after July 1 will have their taxes pro-rated so that they are not paying the annual amount.

How to choose First Used Month?

The first used month is basically the first month that you used the vehicle that year.

If you purchased a truck in January but didn't start using it until April, April would

be your first used month. If you're starting off a new 2290 tax year, the first used

month is always in July, which is when the IRS has dictated the beginning of the

year to be for all filers.

This means that if you've been filing for more than a year and you've been on the

road without ceasing business, you will always file that vehicle in July, unless it is

sold, stolen, or destroyed, or you go out of business.
