I drove for both Uber and Lyft. Do I file two Schedule Cs?+
No — rideshare driving is one business. Combine all rideshare income and all rideshare expenses on a single Schedule C. We aggregate 1099s from both platforms onto the same business return.
Lyft tracks my mileage in the app. Is that enough for the IRS?+
Lyft's in-app mileage covers active rideshare miles (passenger in car or en route). The IRS allows you to deduct ALL business miles including driving to a busy area, returning home, etc. — provided you can document them. We recommend a mileage app like MileIQ or Stride for complete records.
Are tips taxable income?+
Yes, tips are taxable. Lyft reports tips on your 1099 along with fares. Cash tips also count as income even if not on the 1099 — keep records.
How far is your office from Victorian Village?+

Do Victorian Village residents owe local city income tax?+
Most Ohio municipalities in Franklin County levy a 1-2% local income tax on residents and on income earned within city limits. We calculate your local tax liability and file the local return alongside your federal and state returns when applicable.
