In Turbo Tax Premier for windows desktop, where do you report door dash income that is under $600 and you did not receive a 1099 form? And also still be able to use mileage deduction against the income.

Go to Federal Taxes Tab

Wages and Income,

Choose Jump to Full List -or- I'll choose what I work on

Then scroll way down to Business Items

Business Income and Expenses - Click the Start or Update button

You may have to go though a lot of screens entering your business info

Business Income - Click on Start or Update

Enter it as General income. You don't need to get a 1099NEC or 1099Misc or 1099K. Even if you did you can enter all your income as Cash under General. Only the total goes to Schedule C line 1.

EXPENSES

Under Business Expenses, Click Start or Update by Other common business expenses. You should see the list of expenses and amounts you entered.

Then click the start or update button by the expense you want to add or edit.

Your income from Door Dash is considered self-employment income and will be reported on Schedule C (as a business) of your tax return. You will report the income as cash since you didn't receive any type of 1099 form. Yes, you will be able to deduct your mileage and other business expenses.

To enter the business and self-employment income, refer to the TurboTax Help article How do I report income from self-employment?

DoorDash income and expenses are reported on Schedule C (the first option shown on the screenshot you shared). You are considered to be self-employed when working as a DoorDash driver.
