    Pretty sure you can just claim the federal reimbursement

    Some employers offer reimbursements at the federal rate. The government doesn’t necessary reimburse you at that rate, as it’s a deduction and not a reimbursement.

    Option 2 is best if you lease a car. I’m 1099 but I always finance and therefore I use option 1… or use my mileage to the max. My yearly expenses for the car aren’t that much compared to the 63 cents I get back per mile. It’s awesome.

    I thought it was a reimbursement though? it just lowers your taxable income? so wouldn't I be only saving 412$ in taxes for 10,000 miles? that's peanuts aint no 62 cents a mile at that point lol

    Someone on Lyft FB group was saying they WERE leasing a car (making regular payments) prior to doing rideshare. They weren’t actively making payments when doing rideshare and car was up for repo. So he or she didn’t know what to put on taxes when it asks if they own or lease their car. They were asking if they should select lease and input payment amount. (Amount they were not paying) and if so, what would happen. Apparently if you put “own car” they want the title number or something so they couldn’t do that. Can the IRS see if they were actually making the payments or not? any advice?

    Some states allow you to seek reimbursement from your employer

    Good question! I can’t speak for California state returns as I don’t know the law off the top of my head, but federally speaking, you don’t need an LLC to take any special deductions for premiums. I’m assuming you’re talking about car insurance right? When it comes to the deductions, you will just need to keep track of the proportion of miles driven for business vs personal, that will give you a % to determine if taking that allocation of actual costs is that’s business related. If the total costs allocated to business is greater than the standard mileage rule, use that. Otherwise, you can’t take standard mileage rates in addition to premium costs- as that’s technically double dipping

    Are you talking about what form you’ll use when you file taxes? Usually it’s a schedule C that will go with your normal 1040.

    If you’re told you don’t qualify for a form on the app then you can also use the tax summary . Account > Tax Info > Tax summaries > 20xx annual tax summary

    Good question! I usually do as long as there is some good estimate for the allocation between personal and business. So for example, if your cell phone bill is $100 monthly, and you’re using your phone continuously on the weekend evenings for your side business, then we can kind of back into how much of that $100 is reasonably allocated to your self employment.
