How to declared Tips without a 1099

in Filing my taxes

I drove for Uber in 2025 but I did not receive a 1099‑K or 1099‑NEC from Uber, likely because I was below their reporting threshold. However, I do have an Uber “Tax Summary for 2025” that shows: Gross trip earnings, tips, incentives,reimbursements/tolls/fees),uber service fee.

Should I skip the 1099‑K section and enter all my Uber income directly under Business Income (Schedule C) as gross receipts for a rideshare business, then enter my expenses (mileage, Uber fees, tolls) in the Schedule C expense section?

How do enter the new qualified tips / no tax on tips deduction if I don’t have a 1099‑K?

Thank you

    Hi Mark_Tree,

    The IRS has issued some directions on the No-Tax-On-Tips deduction. If you do not have a 1099, W2, or Form 4137, then you cannot take the deduction.
