As such, Uber drivers must keep records of the money they receive from Uber, and all of their expenses so that they may prepare and file proper income tax returns each year. Because Uber drivers are independent contractors, they will not be issued a T4 slip.  \nWhen preparing and filing their tax returns, Uber drivers must complete a T2125 . This form is known as a statement of business activities. It lists the income earned and breaks down all of the expenses incurred in that year.  \nWhat Documentation will I need to Complete my Income Tax Return?  \nTo complete your return, you will need to gather information with respect to your income, your expenses, and mileage driven. Furthermore, you will also require:  \n􀁸 Your Annual Tax Summary from Uber (found at: [partners.uber.com](partners.uber.com));  \n􀁸 Receipts, bills and statements for all tax-deductible expenses.  \n􀁸 Your vehicle mileage from the beginning of the year, the end of the year, and separated between personal and business kilometres driven.  \n􀁸 Your Social Insurance Number; and  \n􀁸 Any other tax documents and slips related to any other employment you may have.  \nWhat Expenses may I deduct?  \nYou can deduct certain business expenses from your income to lower the overall amount of tax you will pay. Some examples include:  \n􀁸 Mileage.  \n􀁸 Maintenance expenses (gas, oil, windshield washer fluid, new tires, tuneups, etc.) .  \n􀁸 Car washes.  \n􀁸 Vehicle insurance.  \n􀁸 Transponder for toll roads, tolls or parking costs.  \n􀁸 Cell phone expenses.  \n􀁸 Uber booking fees.  \n􀁸 Freebies for riders (water, candy, etc.);  \n􀁸 Cell phone mounts.  \n􀁸 Dash-cams.  \n􀁸 Phone accessories (chargers, auxiliary cords and hands-free headsets);  \n􀁸 Car loan interest; and  \n􀁸 Accountant or bookkeeping fees.","cbCaillucH4XkkEB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaillucH4XkkEB","pdf",267781,"English","# Income tax status and reporting requirements\n# T2125 statement of business activities\n# Documentation needed for the return\n# Deductible expenses for Uber drivers","[{\"question\":\"Are Uber drivers in Canada considered employees or independent contractors?\",\"answer\":\"Uber drivers are considered self-employed independent contractors in Canada, rather than employees.\"},{\"question\":\"Which tax slip is not issued to Uber drivers, and what form must they complete?\",\"answer\":\"Uber drivers are not issued a T4 slip and must complete the T2125 form, known as the Statement of Business Activities.\"},{\"question\":\"What information and documents are needed to complete a Canadian income tax return as an Uber driver?\",\"answer\":\"Drivers must collect income and expense information, including Uber’s Annual Tax Summary, receipts for deductible expenses, mileage split into personal and business kilometres, their Social Insurance Number, and any other related tax documents or slips.\"}]","Uber Drivers and Canadian Income Tax - Income tax filing guidance for drivers | PDF",1789794170]
