IRS-Authorized e-file ProviderForm 2290 returns are transmitted directly to the IRS — your stamped Schedule 1 comes back electronically.
How it works

From first truck to stamped Schedule 1

Every EasyFile2290 return follows the same flow — the same order the IRS asks for the information on Form 2290 and Schedule 1.
1
Tax preparer

Filing for a client? Enter your PTIN, credentials (CPA, EA, attorney, AFSP, or none), and firm details. Skip this step if you're filing for your own business.

2
Business

Your EIN, legal name, address, and the signing authority who'll e-sign the return. You can't file Form 2290 with a Social Security number — an EIN is required.

3
Form

Original return, amended return, VIN correction, or final return — pick one, and we'll show only the fields that apply.

4
Trucks

Add each vehicle's VIN and taxable gross weight category (A–V), or mark it as logging (reduced rate) or suspended (5,000 miles or less — 7,500 for agricultural — expected during the period).

5
Prior year

Optional — only if you reported suspended vehicles on last year's Form 2290. Confirm they stayed under the mileage limit, or note any that were sold.

6
Credits

Claim a credit if you already paid tax on a vehicle that was sold, destroyed, stolen, or stayed under the mileage limit last period.

7
Tax summary

See the tax for every truck, computed straight from the IRS TY2026 rate tables, and the total balance due before you commit to anything.

8
Review

A final read-through of every line of the return — business info, vehicles, and totals — against what you entered.

9
Pay

Pay the tax due by electronic funds withdrawal, EFTPS, or credit/debit card. Form 2290 requires the tax to be paid in full when you file.

Filing 25 or more vehicles (taxed, not suspended) in the period? Electronic filing is required by the IRS. Under 25, it's optional but still the fastest way to get your Schedule 1.
When to file

Due the last day of the month after first use

Form 2290 must be filed for the month the taxable vehicle is first used on public highways during the period — not tied to your state registration renewal date. If a due date falls on a weekend or legal holiday, file by the next business day.
