IRS Form 2290 deadlines 2019 – 2020

If yes, you’ve got a quick-and-easy answer when it comes to your form-filing deadline. You should be already be all paid up through the end of the 2018 – 2019 tax period. Your next deadline will be your deadline to file for the 2019 -2020 tax year. When the clock strikes June 30th, 2018, that’s when it’s time to look to filing for the 2019 – 2020 tax period.  

This date might surprise you. If you’ve been filing 2290’s for a while, you’ll recognize August 31st as the usual filing and payment deadline. This year, the 31st falls on a Saturday. Because of this, your filing and payment deadline is extended to the next business day, September 2nd, 2019. 

If you’ve purchased your vehicle since July 31st, 2018, you’ve got a little different situation this first year. You’ll end up filing and paying twice in the first year. You’ll need to first pay for the time between when you bought your truck, and the new, full filing season. Then, you’ll be on track to pay for the July 1st through June 30th deadlines. 

You’re responsible for heavy vehicle utility tax from the month you first purchase and use the vehicle on a public highway through the beginning of the new filing period. If you bought your truck on August 8th, 2018, then you must pay taxes from August 2018 through the end of June, 2019. 

This is where that pesky deadline table comes into play. Your deadline for 2290 forms and payment depends on when you purchased your vehicle. The IRS gives you the month of purchase, plus the full month following to file your form and pay your tax.

For example: If you purchased your vehicle on January 2nd, 2019, you have the remaining month of August through February 28th  of 2019 to file. If you purchased your vehicle on February 15th, 2019, you’d ordinarily have until March 31st to file, but the 31st is a Sunday. So, your form and payment deadline is extended to April 1st, 2019.
