You have self-employment income, so you need to prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses.

 

DOORDASH, INSTACART, GRUBHUB, ETC.

If you have self-employment income for which you will pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare,  you will need to use online Premium software or any version of the desktop software download so that you can prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses.
