- Type “Schedule C" in the search box, top right of your screen, then click the magnifying glass
- Click the "jump to schedule c" link in the search results.
- You will arrive at the Your Business summary page where you can add/edit a business
- If you have not set up your business profile, the program will ask you a series of basic questions to establish your profile
- Follow the onscreen instructions to enter your business income and expenses
- For entering income, there will be two main sections: one specifically for income reported on a Form 1099-MISC and one for all other additional income (including cash, checks, or income reported on a Form 1099-K). There is an additional section for uncommon income, but you will use "all other additional income.” See screenshot below.
- You will enter the gross receipts as presented on your tax summary under this all other income section
- After entering your income, you can proceed to the expenses section to deduct any business expenses for the Uber Income (such as mileage and platform fees - some of these fees will be on your tax summary)
