A complete guide to Form 8849
In order to file the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax, the driver of a vehicle that weighs 55,000 pounds or more must complete Form 2290. Refunds for the payment of the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax are also available in some cases. Heavy Vehicle Use Taxes are usually paid, but the vehicle must not exceed 5,000 miles (7,500 miles if it is used for agricultural purposes). Having already paid the tax for a particular year and having the vehicle stolen, sold, or destroyed can also result in a refund request.
Proof of your vehicle's sale, theft, or destruction is required to file Form 8849 and claim a refund. Your IRS refund request must be supported by a clear explanation of the reason for the refund. The documents that can be provided include a bill of sale, a police report, or an insurance claim form.
