By -

Heavy vehicle use tax (HVUT) is filed by truck owners and Trucking companies that has and uses vehicles of weight 55000 lbs and more. Hence, if you are a truck owner and having vehicle of 55000 lbs and above and have used the vehicle for 5000 miles and above (7500 miles for agricultural vehicle), then it is mandatory that you file form 2290 and pay the taxes on time to save yourself from huge penalties. Also if you own a heavy vehicle of weight 55000 lbs and above and have used a vehicle less than 5000 miles (7500 miles for agricultural vehicle), still you have to file form 2290 but as a suspended vehicles where you will be exempted from paying taxes.
Moreover, the best way which even the IRS recommends is to file form 2290 electronically. Reason why you should go for e-file rather than paper file is:
Easy and Fast– If you decide to paper file form 2290, you will have to  rush to the IRS office, stand in long queues, ignoring your other essential tasks and end up wasting a full day in the process. But E file is complete opposite. Electronically filing form 2290 is very easy as it takes 3 simple steps to complete your filing. It is convenient as you don’t have to go anywhere to file your HVUT taxes.  E filing form 2290 will be over in few minutes and you can concentrate on your other important works you may have.
Safe and Secure – Filing 2290 return by mail is not that safe as compared to E-filing your 2290 return. E-filing ensures that your return directly Reaches the IRS, but there is no such guarantee with paper filing. Also when you e-file your return the data transmission between the tax application and IRS is encrypted to prevent any data access hence making e file a very secured process.
Stamped Schedule 1 in Minutes – If you mail your form 2290, it takes 7-10 days to receive confirmation and your IRS stamped form 2290 schedule 1. But that's not case with e-file. E-file results in immediate confirmation and you can download form 2290 schedule 1 in minutes
Accurate Filing – Filing your tax return by paper means you have to do the calculations yourself, which might result in errors and inaccuracy. But if you choose for e-file, you are saved from doing complicated calculations as the online tax application does all the calculations for you, checks for errors and make sure your tax information is accurate.
