You'll have a better idea what to look for through the year. If some of it makes sense, then you might be better prepared for tax season. That's kind of hard to do if I'm not one myself, right? Instead, my goal is to help some of it make sense. That's my goal here, to try to put all this in terms that are maybe a bit easier to understand. If a common delivery driver and blogger can understand the basics, so can anyone else. While there are a lot of complexities in the details, the basic concepts aren't that difficult. We feel like it's a mystery that no one can understand. So why is a non-tax expert writing a series of articles on Uber Eats taxes? Because I think we get freaked out about taxes. I'm just a normal driver who delivers for a number of food delivery companies like Uber Eats, Grubhub, Doordash, and a few others. I'll explain things like what the form does and how it's used. The purpose of this article is to educate you on how taxes work. You need to understand that this is NOT tax advice. How the expense sections of Schedule C works.How the income part of Schedule C works.Filling out the personal information section.What to look for when using tax preparation software.Why it's important to understand Schedule C.Let's look a bit more at Schedule C: We'll look at: There's the personal and business information section, the income section, and the expense section. There's really three parts of Schedule C. If we explain some of the things on the form, the rest of it kind of takes care of itself. I believe you can get a good idea how it works. Isn't this like a bit much for someone to figure out? Okay, but isn't this starting to get really complicated? All these different forms and schedules and all that. That's because Schedule C, and not your 1099, is what determines what income gets moved over to your 1040 Tax Return. It's even more important than the Uber 1099 forms you get. In the first part of this series on Uber Eats Taxes we said Schedule C is the most important tax form for your delivery work as an Uber Eats independent contractor.
