How much does it cost to file Form 2290?
Filing Form 2290 with Consulics starts at $49.50 per filing for 1 to 24 vehicles. That is a flat service fee, charged once per return rather than per month, and it covers the whole filing including free VIN corrections and a re-file if the IRS rejects your return because of an error on our end.
Two separate amounts, and they are not the same thing
- The HVUT tax goes to the IRS. It runs from $100 to $550 per vehicle per year based on taxable gross weight, prorated if the truck went on the road after July. Every provider charges you the same tax, because the IRS sets it.
- The filing fee goes to the provider that transmits your return. This is the only part that differs between providers, and it is the part shown on this page.
So when you compare providers on price, compare the filing fee, not the total. A provider cannot make your tax cheaper. What they can change is what the fee includes, and that is where the real difference usually hides. Before you judge any quote, check whether VIN corrections cost extra, whether a rejected return costs you a second fee to resend, and whether the price shown is per filing or per vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the total cost to file?
This is our one-time service fee per 2290 filing, based on your number of vehicles. The Heavy Vehicle Use Tax itself is calculated by the IRS and paid directly to the IRS — it is separate from our fee.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. The price you see is our complete service fee — no subscriptions, no renewals, no surprises.
Do these fees also cover Form 8849 refund claims?
Yes. The same per-filing tiers apply whether you are filing Form 2290 or claiming a credit or refund on Form 8849 (Schedule 6). Your fee is based on the number of vehicles in the filing, not the form.
Some sites advertise lower fees. What makes this fee worth it?
Compare the all-in cost, not the teaser price. Our fee includes everything most low-cost sites charge extra for: free VIN corrections, free retransmission of rejected returns, our re-file guarantee, and real human support — plus the largest free tool and guide library in the 2290 space, in English, Spanish, and Punjabi. One paid correction or rejection elsewhere usually erases the difference.
How fast will I get my Schedule 1?
Most returns are IRS-accepted within minutes, and your IRS-stamped Schedule 1 is available to download immediately after acceptance.
What if I entered a VIN incorrectly?
VIN corrections are free on returns filed with us.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit and debit cards through a secure, encrypted checkout.
Do you stand behind your filing?
Yes. If the IRS rejects your return due to a processing error on our end, we will correct it and refile at no extra charge.
