    as a uber driver, you are self-employed which entitles you to the 199A deduction.  It will be 20% of your net self-employment income. Net schedule c income less 1/2 your self-employment tax less any contributions to a retirement plan. Form 8995. Turbotax should do the calculation automatically once you check it's a 199A business. it is not an SSTB
