What forms do I fill out as a courier for Doordash/Ubereats?When I select “Self-Employed” forms it wants me to upgrade to deluxe or Self-Employed. Is this worth it?

@raymejia2002-icl You have two threads with two different questions.  In one of your threads you say you just started working for Door Dash in May 2022.  If you did not start until 2022 then it does not go on your tax return until you file a 2022 tax return next year in 2023, so not sure why you are asking now about which software to use.  The only tax return you can prepare and file using online TurboTax right now is 2021.   You will not enter anything about Door Dash on a 2021 tax return if you were not working with Door Dash in 2021.

 

 

That being said, you are working as an independent contractor for Door Dash, which means for your 2022 return next year you will pay self-employment tax.  And yes you will need the Self-Employed version of online software or else any version of the CD/download so that you can enter your business expenses.

 

You need to get "educated" regarding working as an independent contractor ahead of time.

If I have additional questions how do I keep them all In one thread?

Just reply on the thread you want to  add it  to like you just did. You can't combine your 2 threads.
