@terranlikekaren: Did you DoorDash without tracking your miles? Don’t panic you still have options friend . One of the BIGGEST tax mistakes DoorDash drivers make especially NEW door Dashers is not tracking mileage from day one. The good news? The IRS allows reasonable mileage estimates if you’re consistent and can support them. In this video, I break down how DoorDash drivers can go back and calculate miles using: ✔️ DoorDash dash history ✔️ Google Maps route estimates ✔️ Gas and bank statements ✔️ Mileage tracking apps like Stride, Everlance, or MileIQ Mileage is your largest tax write-off as a 1099 DoorDash driver, and missing it can cost you thousands at tax time. My name is Terran like Karen and I teach DoorDashers how to stop overpaying the IRS. I am not a cpa! 📌 Save this video for tax season 👥 Follow for DoorDash & gig worker money tips
For mileage… Do you track from the moment you leave your house until you’re done dashing, if you start your dash when you’re leaving your house (or if you’re already out start tracking from the time you start dashing till you’re done)?

I believe you mentioned in another video if you made less then 600 that you don't need to worry about taxes at all?

I use stride. It’s flawless. The first year I started, I started in October and didn’t track till January. But DoorDash did send a email with my millage, but it only included from accept to drop off so was missing a ton of miles. Was still better than nothing though

Hey you can also try Mileagesnap. There's no GPS tracking so it would not drain your battery.
