In an era when smartphones
and tablets have taken over, filing tax returns through paper is slowly going
extinct and completing tax returns online is the need of the hour as it is
easier, precise and efficient. The less complicated your tax return is, the
more rudimentary is the preparation for it.
The slight panicky feeling that happens when deadlines approach and start to accumulate is every tax payer’s worst nightmare. These tax deadlines happen once every year or every quarter and failure to address them results in penalties and interest from Uncle Sam.
It’s time now to put on your
thinking hat and have these tax returns completed in order to stay compliant
with the IRS. A Few Tax forms that are Due this month would namely be:-
Form 2290: The Federal
Excise Tax Form 2290 also known as Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) is due for renewal
for the current 2020 tax year. And the deadline to report any new Vehicles first
used in the month of June is due by July31st.
IFTA: International Fuel Tax Agreement is due by July 31st for the second quarter of 2020.
At www.TaxExcise.com we know that truckers are the mainstay of America, they transport almost all basic necessities such as food, clothes to medicine and electronics. If you’ve got it, then a trucker brought it!
Trucking is a major source of employment with over 8 million people working in trucking related jobs to over 3.5 million truck drivers, the total revenue brought in keeps increasing at a phenomenal rate with over 800 billion a year. As this figure keeps increasing it also does bring about new rules and limitations on certain regulations.
e-file Form 2290 before IRS shutdown to receive stamped sch.1 copy within minutes.
Does Santa use a reindeer or a truck? We believe that our
truckers are Santa Clauses in disguise. This holiday season with Christmas
around the corner we would like to appreciate the trucking community who would
be spending this busy season in making millions of families happy, after all
the best gift around the Christmas tree is the presence of family wrapped in
love, we at Taxexcise.com would like to wish our Santa’s a Very Merry
Christmas.
And we would also like to remind you to not miss out on the
December 31st deadline for any new vehicles first used in November.
We also hope that you are aware that just after Christmas the
IRS will be shutting down operations for a routine maintenance, so be sure to
file your 2290’s before their downtime.
The IRS E-file Servers will be shut down for Year-End Maintenance every year by Christmas to prepare their systems for the upcoming Tax Year’s Filing. The IRS has posted it on their official website www.irs.gov that the MeF Production Shutdown/Cutover is scheduled to begin at 11:59 a.m., Thursday, December 26, 2019, to prepare the system for the upcoming 2020 Filing Season.
During the Shutdown period, the IRS will not accept or process any E-filed tax return. Though the IRS servers will be down, www.Taxexcise.com / www.Tax2290.com – Product of ThinkTrade Inc., will continue to accept tax returns. The tax returns that are filed during the Shutdown/Cutover time will be held securely on our servers and will be submitted to the IRS once their Servers are up and running, which is expected ONLY by the first week of January 2020.
Truckers, Trucking Companies & Tax Preparers who have returns to file for the Month of December are advised to E-file their Heavy Vehicle Use Tax Form (HVUT) Form 2290 before Christmas Weekend so that you won’t be bothered by the E-file Shutdown.
The IRS may not be available to assist you during the shutdown period but Taxexcise.com and its Tax Experts will be available to assist you even during the Production cutover time. Feel free to reach our Team @ 1-866-245-3918 or write to us @ support@taxexcise.com or ping them using the LIVE CHAT option available on the website.
The time has come and the Grace period is
over, for the last few months you have been constantly reminded of the deadline
to file your form 2290 for tax year 2019-20, however to the best known reason
to some, they are still yet to file their form 2290 for tax year 2019-20. The
IRS also extended the deadline to file by 3 days due to the fact that the
August 31st falls on Saturday and Monday Sept 2nd is a
federal holiday that gives you another one more day (Today) to file your 2290
for 2019-20. Any filing done after the deadline (TODAY) might incur a penalty
for late filing and also incur a monthly interest on the total tax dues.
Why wait longer? Do your filing now and have the stamped Schedule 1 received in few minutes.
The Time has come! Do not wait; the time will never be ‘just right.’ Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your disposal, and better tools that have been provided just to make you act now. Any more delay could be dangerous.
Why is it so important to act now? It is important to act now because you only have 1 more business day to file your tax return without being penalized for late filing and payment, we all know Uncle Sam does not like late filers. And with the IRS Labor day power outage scheduled for August 31 to September 3, 2019, you have limited time to act and you wouldn’t want to be caught in the middle of the huge traffic that might delay your 2290 getting processed at the last minute.
