What expenses can I deduct as an independent contractor as an Instacart Shopper?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
You do not "deduct" anything on a quarterly basis. When you file your tax return next year after tax year 2024 is over, you prepare a Schedule C and enter 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 CD/download so that you can prepare a Schedule C for your business expenses.
