Side Hustle & Gig Income
“I drive for Uber on the side, what can I deduct and what do I owe?”
For Uber driving, the tax picture often depends on how the activity is tracked, whether the work is treated as self-employment income, and how personal versus business use is separated. Common considerations include mileage or actual vehicle costs, phone and app-related expenses, tolls, parking, supplies, and any fees taken by the platform. What is owed can also vary with other income, withholding, and whether estimated taxes are involved. Records from the rideshare app, mileage logs, and receipts usually shape the final result, along with how much of the driving is for business compared with personal use. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
