by on

Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration: Increasing Federal and State Cooperation and Promoting Electronic Filing Would Improve Administration of Taxes Used to Maintain the Nation’s Highways, March 24, 2008. Reference Number: 2008-40-089.

  • “The Heavy Vehicle Use Tax is a prepaid tax the IRS collects. Combined with other Federal excise taxes, it is used to provide more than $1 billion annually in Federal highway transit funds to the States. Expanding the Alternate Proof of Payment Program could reduce taxpayer burden by allowing taxpayers one-stop service when paying the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax and registering their vehicles. The Alternate Proof of Payment Program is based on an agreement between the IRS and State Departments of Motor Vehicles that allows taxpayers to simultaneously file, pay the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax, and register their vehicles. In addition, expanding electronic filing (e-filing) of Form 2290 would reduce costs for both taxpayers and the IRS.”
