Side Hustle & Gig Income
“I have Lyft income from a side gig, what expenses can I deduct?”
Lyft income from a side gig often raises questions about which costs are tied to earning that income and how they are documented. Common factors include mileage or actual vehicle costs, gas, maintenance, insurance, phone use, tolls, parking, and any platform-related fees, but the treatment can depend on whether the vehicle is used partly for personal driving and how records are kept. The way the work is classified, the mix of business and personal use, and the quality of mileage logs or receipts often shape what can be supported on a return. Sitting down with a CPA for thirty minutes is usually enough to draw a clean line on this.
