Working as a Uber & Rideshare Driver in the United States means you are classified as an independent contractor. Unlike traditional employees, no taxes are withheld from your pay, making it essential to track your income and expenses throughout the year.
As a self-employed worker, you are responsible for both the employee and employer portions of 1099 self-employment tax. This is calculated on your net earnings — your gross income minus allowable business deductions. The IRS requires quarterly estimated payments if you expect to owe over a certain threshold.
Rideshare drivers can deduct vehicle mileage at the standard rate, platform fees and commissions, phone and data plan (business portion), phone mount, dashcam, car washes, tolls, parking, water and refreshments for passengers, and a portion of auto insurance and maintenance.
Quarterly estimated tax payments are due April 15, June 16, September 15, 2026, and January 15, 2027. Pay online via IRS Direct Pay or the IRS2Go app.
