I drive for Uber as a side gig. My tips were included as part of my 1099-K, but when I checked the box that it includes tips Turbotax isn't counting it as a deduction. Is this because I didn't meet the threshold of $20K for 1099K / $600 for 1099-NEC?
It is not because you didn't meet the thresholds you mention. It may be because of the answers you gave to the questions in TurboTax. You needed to indicate that you were in the transport/delivery business and were a taxi or rideshare driver. On the screen that mentioned Less Common Situations, you needed to answer "no" to those situations if that is true. The deduction is only allowed to individuals in certain types of industries and who meet certain qualifications.
