This is a yearly excise tax on trucks used in the United State and one form must be filed for each truck. A Form 2290 can be obtained through the I.R.S' website or by obtaining the documents through a local tax office. The form must be filed with the IRS just like any other tax return. Begin by filling out your contact information on top of the form. 1. Put your or your corporation's name, an Employer Identification Number, and your current address including street, city, and state. 2. Next, you must determine the tax amount in part I.
