Uber, Lyft, doordash need different Schedule C?

HI

 

I am self-employed of Uber, Lyft, doodash. 

A. I may get deductible from  the miles of the car.  Need I file different Schedule C for Uber, Lyft? Or add all the miles to one Schedule C? I drove 10000 miles for Uber, and 5000 Miles for Lyft, May I count 15000 in one Schedule C? 

B. My product is Premier, is it necessary for me to upgrade to self-employed ? What is the difference? since I already file the forms in Premier version. 

 

Thanks!

    Because they are similar, you can include your uber and lyft on the same Schedule C.  You will have to total the income and expenses so you do not have to separate according to who paid you.  

    You probably will need to upgrade to Self-Employed, you will not get the most benefit from Premiere with the Schedule C.

    You will not be able to claim mileage or other expenses in TurboTax Online Premier. You have to upgrade to Self-Employed in order to claim expenses.
