2290 Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax
Registration for 2022 UCR Filing opened on October 1, 2021. While the fees for 2022 are the same as for the previous year, there are lots of opportunities for errors and a potential that you may have overpaid and will continue to do so.
File Only for Required Vehicles
The most common mistake is filing for more of your vehicles than required. The basis for the 2022 fee structure is the number of commercial vehicles (not including trailers) as reported by your MCS-150 on file with FMCSA.
If you haven’t started your commercial operations yet or are planning to add or remove vehicles, getting a consult from a third-party agency such as VLC is a great choice. They will make sure you file accurately, and in many cases, they save their clients’ money by making sure they don’t overpay.
Failure to file, failure to pay the correct amount, or late filing can result in monetary penalties. Be sure to get your UCR prepared correctly and filed on time. Call or contact VLC for assistance.

2290 Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax
The 2290 Heavy Highway Use Tax deadline is quickly approaching. The last day to file is August 31, 2021. Avoid penalties and stress by getting this off your plate and done correctly. Adding and removing trucks can be a little tricky (knowing how to pro-rate). We can help you save money by accurate and timely filing.
As a reminder, the 2290 Form (Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax) is required to be filed and paid annually for every truck and tractor using public highways (5,000+ miles) and weighing 55,000+ lbs. The 2290 is required for all registration renewals and must be paid anytime a new vehicle is added to your fleet. In this case of a new addition, the tax is due by the end of the month following the date the vehicle is first used on the public highways.
To file electronically, which we highly recommend, you will need your Employer Identification Number (EIN). This is not accomplished with a social security number. The addition or removal of fleet vehicles can make electronic submissions a little more complex. So call us and let us help; we can save you time and money!
