Yes, you should include toll fees as a deduction. 

 

The amount on your 1099-K is the total amount that your customers paid. Before Uber pays you, they take out expenses like tolls, Safe Rides Fees, taxes, and other fees. 

 

Examples of expenses you pay to Uber are:

  • Tolls
  • Safe Rides fees
  • Split fare fees
  • Black Car Fund
  • Sales tax
  • Booking fees
  • City fees
  • Airport fees
  • Other taxes

To see the amounts of your different driving expenses (the amounts Uber took out before they paid you):

  1. Log in to Uber.com and select the Tax Information page at the top.
  2. In the Tax Documents section, locate your Yearly Summary for 2019 and Download it.

After downloading, open your Yearly Summary and you can see the amount Uber took out from your pay for each expense category.

 

For further information please see the TurboTax website: Why is my Uber 1099-K different from what I actually got paid?
