- The First Step to Receive a Stamped Schedule 1 for your Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) is to Fill Out IRS Form 2290. The Schedule 1 is included in this IRS Form. This can be done either by hand or online. All that is needed to file this form is a valid EIN (Employee Identification Number), VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), and the taxable gross weight of the vehicle.
- This Form then needs to be taken to the nearest IRS Office along with a proof of payment or proof of EFTPS Payment. It can also be mailed to the nearest IRS office
- The trouble with these options is that they are both very time consuming.
- If the form is actually taken to the IRS Office, the nearest office could possibly be many miles away. There can also be very long lines and waiting periods at the IRS office of up to several hours.
- If the form is sent to the IRS, using postal mail, it can take 4-6 weeks before it is actually processed.
- The IRS will then review the Form 2290 and when it is verified, they will process it by stamping it and returning a portion of it to the taxpayer.
