Form 2290 and 2290-SP are used to compute and report the tax imposed by section 4481 on the highway use of certain motor vehicles. The information is used to determine whether the taxpayer has paid the correct amount of tax.
The change in burden previously approved by OMB resulted from an adjustment to estimates made by the Department based on the most current filing data. The number of responses increased by 411,002, however overall burden decreased by 7,776,235 hours due to a lowered estimate of 16.55 hours per response (versus the previous 42.86 hours). This reduction is driven primarily by automation that simplifies the burden of recordkeeping.
