We know how important it is to have your tax documents on time, so we’ll notify you through email and in-app when they’re ready. This includes your Uber Tax Summary and 1099s.
Yes. If your earnings are below the IRS reporting threshold ($20,000 and 200 transactions for 2025), you can still choose to receive 1099 tax forms from Uber.
To do this, update your W-9 form in the Uber Driver app or the web driver portal. This lets Uber issue 1099 forms (such as the 1099-K and 1099-NEC, if applicable) even if you don’t meet the minimum earnings requirement.
Opting in may help you have the documents needed to report your income or claim certain deductions, such as the federal no tax on tips benefit starting in 2025.
If you’re eligible for 1099s and chose to get physical copies, expect them in the mail after February 1, 2026.
