ExpenseBot's Uber driver tax tracker imports trip mileage from your Uber driver CSV. It creates mileage-log entries and expense summaries; add earnings separately with Add Income. Review the log and keep actual records for business miles missing from the CSV.
How it works: Download your CSV from the Uber Earnings Hub (drivers.uber.com → Earnings → Statements → Download CSV), upload it to ExpenseBot, and the parser reads each trip's miles and creates a mileage log plus monthly summary rows on your expense tab at the mileage rate saved in your Settings. It does not create Income tab rows; add earnings with Add Income.
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 76 cents/mile for miles driven from July 1, 2026 (Announcement 2026-11); miles driven January 1 - June 30 use 72.5 cents (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.
