Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn. | My experience is that at least here in Minnesota and at that time, that the license bureau will allow a new owner to "get by" the first year without a 2290 at least for farm use. My nephew bought a used truck locally and purchased the license tabs the first year without a problem. Next year the local gals said he needed a stamped 2290. He was unaware of a 2290 since we never had a larger truck before.
Some years later we traded that truck for a larger one with a Jockey. I mentioned the 2290 business and he being a typical Jockey said "don't worry about it". Turned out it was fine that first year but I've needed a 2290 ever since.
Your situation may be different. Also to go through some of the outfits that do the 2290 for you for a fee, requires a Federal Tax ID and as a Social Security Number is not good enough. Very confusing. |
Form 2290 for a new to us truck
