How do I enter my mileage to deduct from my 1099 income?

If you have self-employment income and need to prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses you have to upgrade to Premium.

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 CD/download so that you can prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses.

This would be vehicle expenses when entering your self employment income.  You can use actual expenses or the standard mileage rate (most common).

The standard mileage rates for 2023 are:

• Self-employed and business: 65.5 cents/mile 

You will need your total miles the vehicle was driven and the business miles.  You must use the standard mileage rate the first year or you will be required to use actual expenses all years for this vehicle.  The amount of expense is based on the percentage of business miles to total miles.

TurboTax will walk you through this.

• Business use of vehicles
• IRS Business Use of Car
