ExpenseBot's Uber driver tax tracker builds an IRS-compliant mileage log and income records automatically from your Uber driver CSV — no GPS tracker app required.
How it works: Download your CSV from the Uber Earnings Hub (drivers.uber.com → Earnings → Export), upload it to ExpenseBot, and the parser creates two sets of records from one file: income entries (earnings per trip for your Income tab) and mileage log entries (actual route miles per trip at the current IRS or CRA rate).
Why CSV beats GPS trackers: Apps like Hurdlr, MileIQ, and Stride approximate mileage via phone GPS, require a background app running constantly (battery drain), and need manual swipe-categorization per trip. Your Uber CSV records the actual route distance Uber used to calculate your fare — more accurate, zero ongoing effort, and it covers trips you might have missed if a GPS app crashed.
Mileage deduction: The IRS 2026 standard business mileage rate is 72.5 cents per mile (IRS Notice 2026-10). That goes on Schedule C Line 9 (Car and truck expenses). CRA 2026: 73¢/km for the first 5,000 km, 67¢/km thereafter — T2125 Part 4.
Income + 1099-K: Uber issues a 1099-K when gross earnings exceed $20,000 (OBBBA 2025 reinstated the original threshold). The 1099-K shows gross platform volume; your CSV shows what Uber paid you. The difference — Uber's commission (~25–30%) — is deductible on Schedule C Line 10 (Commissions and fees).
Works with: Uber, UberEats, DoorDash, Instacart. Deduplicates by Uber's trip ID so re-importing the same CSV never creates duplicate rows.
