Form 2290 is one of the most important taxes in the USA for the maintenance of highways. It is collected by the IRS, who forwards it to the public highway maintenance and construction groups. All the taxes that are collected from the people are used for road repairs on highways throughout the year. The United States of America has one of the most complex highways in the world. The roads are constantly subjected to rain, hail, and snow in many parts of the country. Weather conditions and the heavyweight of trucks cause severe damage to the roads making them uncomfortable and unsafe for usage. Filing form 2290 tax on time ensures the safety of your trucks and a comfortable journey for your drivers. Not filing taxes in time not only hurts the budget of the service contractors but also leads to a breach of the law. You may be fined or arrested or both if you do not file your taxes making IRS 2290 filing mandatory.
