4 Years Prior to i2290 eFile, Instant-2290 was paving the way for automation:

Founded in 2003 Instant-2290 delivered the first web-based "wizard" for trucking companies to prepare the IRS Form 2290 (HVUT) tax form.  

Provided Guidance to IRS Development Team:

Without IRS Development Consortium input from Phil Boyer (Instant-2290's President/CEO) in 2005 - there would be no "INSTANT" at all.  The IRS was planning to provide a means to eFile, but no way to pay electronically for most truckers - and a 6-8 week wait for a Stamped Schedule 1 in US mail.  Enlightened with the business requirements described by Mr. Boyer, the IRS went back to the drawing board for a year and emerged with an elegant solution - file, pay and pick up your Sch1 - all electronically - with a 24 hour service level.  The IRS has far exceeded expectations and the typical turn-around time is a few minutes rather than 24 hours.

What are we doing if it does not make the world a better place?

The company was built to be a lighthouse; a symbol of the standards by which we should conduct ourselves in business.  It is critical to recognize the value in the people behind the machines - whether behind the wheel of an 80,000 pound truck or the keyboard of a Macbook Pro.  Treatment of customers, employees, contractors, partners, vendors, IRS and state agents - even competitors - is critical to what Instant-2290 considers a win.

We could sell mattresses or deliver IRS eFile Services - what matters is HOW we conduct ourselves in our business.  Holding to high standards of conduct organically yields products, services and teams that are enviable.
