      Awesome video u just earned a new subscriber!! Please answer this question, so I made only 990 dollars the hole year, and with all the stuff I put into my car/maintenance/ miles / phone/ tolls etc, it's pretty much the same price as what I made 990^. So I just did my taxes I have my real job and my unemployment, I told my tax guy about doordash and he said u don't have to worry about doing that?? What do you think?? Will I be ok? Or get in trouble? Please respond, I'll have my buddies subscribe to u also! Thanks man

    Can i write off the cost of the phone i use to dash? If so, can it be a phone i bought a couple years back and what percent do i write off? if i want to write off my phone bill, do i just calculate the total months i spent dashing where i paid for the bill? for ex if i dashed for two months would the expense just be the amount i spent on phone bill during those two months or the entire of the year? what expenses does the standard mileage rate include?

    Question about tracking the mileage. Can we just give a basic number like 8,000 miles for 1200 deliveries or we do have to show them proof?
    Also I have a lot gas receipts saved up. Are they a write off too?

    • @Huncho623
      @Huncho623 3 года назад

      Try to be honest. It’s easy to keep track of your miles.. simple as writing them down everyday. If you use gas and car expenses such as oil change, tires, brakes etc etc as a write off than you can’t do the mileage. It’s one or the other

    Everything in this video was good advice except turbo tax. I don't know about the other free tax places like h&r block but I used to use turbo tax like everyone else until one time they tried to charge me a few thousand which made no sense. I went to my tax guy and I got a ton of money back and lost nothing. He has been in it his whole life and knows what he is doing plus it only costs based on the amount of work he puts in. Which was usually between 50 to 100 bucks. Depends on where you go on what price you get so don't be afraid to try tax agents out, you never know if you might get a good deal.

    So can I also deduct gas? Also I saw when quarterly payments are due to the irs, but how do I determine what the estimated tax due is? I wasn't an independent contractor last year, so I don't have that to go by. Do I calculate using my earnings from January - March & also use my mileage for that time? Or do I not worry about quarterly payments until next year? I literally just started & it seems so daunting, although from what I gather it's fairly simple once you figure it out.

    Thanks for the video. First year delivery filer here. I do eats, dash, and grubhub and listed all on 1099 misc and the income made from each. Stride uploaded expenses ( though I can't see where it posted my mileage, all I can see is expenses like cell phone) when I get to the mileage deduction on the 1099 it asks for vehicle mileage start and end. I didn't track that or know I needed to. I used a few vehicles and never kept track, just ran the app. So at this point not sure if hr block online accounted for my mileage through the stride upload or if I need to somehow fudge numbers for each vehicle I used under the deductions tab? Anyone else have similar issues or knowledge of this?

      You can estimate or use history. Generally it looks like $1.25 to 0.75 per mile, so if you earn about $10,000 you should have 8000 to 12000 miles. You can track things for a few months and see what your average is, then based it on your earnings.

So far, i made 103.21, am i required to report this income or pay tax on it. i looked up information online and found that if you make less than 400 per year, you dont have to pay tax on it, is it true? can anyone here shed me some lights. thank you!!!
