Gross is not income
Rideshare and delivery earnings are self-employment income. Fuel, repairs and depreciation come out of your pocket, and you owe self-employment tax (15.3% on most profit) on top of income tax.
Mileage vs actual expenses
Most drivers deduct the IRS standard mileage rate. It often beats actual expenses, because it covers depreciation and maintenance in one number. Compare both in the table.
Frequently asked questions
What mileage rate should I use?
Use the IRS standard mileage rate for the tax year. It is editable here because the rate can change.
Does this include business miles to the first pickup?
Enter all miles you drive for the work, including miles to pick-ups. Commuting from home to your first stop generally is not deductible; check IRS rules.
Is it tax advice?
No. It is a simplified estimate to plan your week and quarterly payments.
