If you are using the online version of TurboTax, Self-Employed would enable you to enter self-employment income and expenses and maximize deductions geared toward self-employment. The equivalent in desktop software is TurboTax Home and Business. 

To learn more about expenses that can be deducted associated with being an Uber driver, see the article below:

What is the difference between online and desktop version? Does one of them gets you a faster refund?

The major difference between the two is the desktop version you download to your computer, while the online version is completed online. You would receive your refund along the usual timeline.
