Do I have to pay each state Taxes, for DoorDash ?

This is for my Gig/ self-employed job  Doordash. I live in Delaware and typically do all my Doordash orders in Delaware. Also, I am single with no dependents.  I will have to pay taxes because I am going to make over $600 this year.  My question is, if I started taking orders in for example in  Pa, NJ, and MD, do I have to file separate taxes for each state or do I have to file in Delaware?

File state taxes for the state where you live.  Do you receive a form 1099 NEC or you collect your payment directly from clients.  Does your Door Dash company reside in the state where you live?  Either way you file and pay for Delaware.

 

If you receive a form 1099-NEC you report that income in your home state because you are self employed.

Thanks, I believe I'll be receiving a 1099 of some form.

If Doordash does not issue a Form 1099 , you may enter your income in the Add Income section of the Schedule C. Cash App transactions, cash, checks, and other methods of payment can be entered here. 

 

  1. Click on the Add Income button 
  2. Select Other self-employed income, includes cash and checks and Continue.  
  3. Enter a Description, such as Cash App, and the Amount
