Each platform sent me a separate 1099. Do I file separate returns?+
No — gig work is one business. Combine all 1099 income on a single Schedule C. The IRS doesn't require you to split income by platform; only the totals matter.
How do I track miles across multiple gig apps?+
Use a mileage app like MileIQ, Stride, or Hurdlr that tracks all driving and classifies trips business or personal. Pull a single annual report covering all gig work. Each gig app's in-app mileage only counts active platform time and underreports significantly.
I do gig work plus a W-2 job. How does that affect my taxes?+
The W-2 is reported separately on Form 1040 lines 1a-1h. Gig income goes on Schedule C with related SE tax on Schedule SE. Both incomes combine for total tax calculation. Your W-2 withholding may cover some of the SE tax owed on gig income, reducing your underpayment.
How far is your office from West Jefferson?+

Do West Jefferson residents owe school district income tax?+
