Updated Federal Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (FHVUT) information:

The unladen weight of a vehicle plays no part in Federal Heavy Vehicle Use Tax determination. FHVUT proof is needed only if a commercial motor vehicle is operated at 55,000 pounds or more combined gross vehicle weight (CGW).

IRS stamped Form 2290 Schedule 1 copy is a must and should be carried. For efiling, IRS issues a watermarked schedule 1 copy as proof. The IRS does not accept partial payments for FHVUT.

The IRS requires taxpayers with 25 or more vehicles to file their FHVUT Schedule 1, Form 2290 electronically (they cannot paper file). Continue reading →
