Side Hustle & Gig Income
“What do I need to know about taxes and deductions for my Uber side job?”
Uber income is often treated as self-employment income, so the tax picture usually depends on how much you earned, what records you kept, and which driving costs were tied to the gig work. Common factors include mileage, gas, tolls, parking, phone use, and any fees or commissions shown on your platform statements. The way the work is reported can also affect whether estimated taxes, self-employment tax, and year-end forms come into play. Because rideshare income can mix personal and business use, recordkeeping often matters as much as the income itself. A short conversation with a CPA can sort out what applies to your specific numbers.
