Form 2290 Ez PDF Details

The Form 2290-EZ, named the Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax Return for Filers With a Single Vehicle, is a crucial document for those owning vehicles with a taxable gross weight over 75,000 pounds. Issued by the Department of the Treasury and effective for the period from July 1, 2003, through June 30, 2004, this form streamlines the tax filing process for individuals or businesses with only one vehicle to report. Unlike the more comprehensive Form 2290, the 2290-EZ is exclusively for taxpayers who pay the full tax liability on one vehicle and cannot be used in conjunction with installment payments, for multiple vehicles, or after the filing deadline of September 2, 2003. It also includes a payment voucher, clearly outlining the tax amount due and providing instructions for payment submission to ensure compliance and avoid penalties. Additionally, designated spaces allow taxpayers to authorize a third party to discuss the return with the IRS, ensuring flexibility and assistance in managing tax affairs. The form emphasizes the importance of timely, accurate filing, and the consequences of not adhering to the stipulated requirements, offering a simplified yet mandatory process for specific filers within the tax framework.

General Instructions

Purpose

Use Form 2290- EZ to pay the tax due on a highway motor vehicle registered in your name and used during the period with a taxable gross weight of more than 75,000 pounds (Category V).

For a tax period, if you file Form 2290-EZ for a taxable vehicle, do not file Form 2290 for the same taxable vehicle.

Use Schedule 1 (Form 2290- EZ) to report your vehicle identification number. The IRS will stamp and return a copy of Schedule 1 to you as proof of payment for registering the vehicle in a state.

Use the Form 2290- EZ(V), Payment Voucher, to make your payment.

Do not use Form 2290- EZ for the period if you:

Are requesting suspension of the tax for the period.

Have more than one taxable vehicle in use in July 2003.

Obtain an additional taxable vehicle during the period (see Caution below).

Have a vehicle with a taxable gross weight of 75,000 pounds or less.

Have a vehicle with a base registration in Canada or Mexico or a logging vehicle.

Are electing to pay in installments.

Are claiming a credit to the tax.

Are filing a partial-year or prior-year return.

Are filing a final return.

Are filing after September 2, 2003.

If you file For m 2290-EZ and later acquire a new or replacement vehicle, you cannot use For m 2290-EZ. Instead, use For m 2290 for the new or replacement vehicle.

Who May File

You may file Form 2290-EZ and Schedule 1 for the July 1, 2003, through June 30, 2004, period if a taxable highway motor vehicle is registered, or required to be registered, in your name under state or District of Columbia law at the time of its first use during the period.

Dual registration. If a taxable vehicle is registered in the name of both the owner and another person, the owner is liable for the tax. This rule also applies to dual registration of a leased vehicle.

Dealers. Any vehicle operated under a dealer’s tag, license, or permit is considered registered in the name of the dealer.

When and Where To File

File Form 2290-EZ by September 2, 2003, with the Internal

Revenue Service, P.O. Box 105421, Atlanta, GA 30348- 5421.

File by this date regardless of when state registration for the vehicle is due. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, file by the next business day.

Penalties and Interest

The law provides penalties for failing to file returns or pay taxes when due. There are also penalties for filing false or fraudulent returns. These penalties are in addition to the interest charge on late payments. The penalty for filing a return late or paying the tax late will not be imposed if you can show reasonable cause for not filing (or paying) on time. If you file after the due date above, you cannot file Form 2290-EZ. Use Form 2290 instead.

Definitions

The taxable gross weight of a vehicle (other than a bus) is the total of:

1.The actual unloaded weight of the vehicle fully equipped for service,

2.The actual unloaded weight of any trailers or semitrailers fully equipped for service customarily used in combination with the vehicle, and

3.The weight of the maximum load customarily carried on the vehicle and on any trailers or semitrailers customarily used in combination with the vehicle.

Ahighway motor vehicle includes any self-propelled vehicle designed to carry a load over public highways, whether or not also designed to perform other functions. Examples of vehicles that are designed to carry a load over public highways include trucks, truck tractors, and buses.

A vehicle consists of a chassis, or a chassis and body, but does not include the load. It does not matter if the vehicle is designed to perform a highway transportation function for only a particular type of load, such as passengers, furnishings, and personal effects (as in a house, office, or utility trailer), or a special kind of cargo, goods, supplies, or materials.

Use means the use of a vehicle with power from its own motor on any public highway in the United States.

A public highway is any road in the United States that is not a private roadway. This includes Federal, state, county, and city roads.
