If i have a w-2 and a 1099 can i still write off my miles for my 1099 job?

I have started driving for Uber and will start getting a 1099, so I was concerned how that will affect my previously strictly W-2 employment.  I wanted to know if i will still be able to write off my miles or if we will lose all write offs with the standard deduction?

You can continue to deduct your mileage as an Uber driver.  You will use Schedule C Profit or Loss from Business to report your income and expenses from your Uber driving.  These deductions are not part of your standard deductions they are business deductions.
