We're getting more and more GIG workers. How is everyone qualifying this type of income?

We're getting more and more GIG workers. How is everyone qualifying this type of income? With self employed I want to see a tax return so we know revenue and expenses. Should the same apply to gig workers?

I believe on of the verification companies has solved this issue . I’ll find you more info and share here!

There’s this exact session about gig working at naa! Great question

Ooh great question. I can't wait to see what solutions the group has to share.

Payscore can provide income verification results for GIG workers. Believe it or not, 45% of the population now has a side hustle and/or is a GIG worker. It will most definitely continue to increase.

Yes, we use the taxes, and their weekly earnings summaries primarily.  

Lyft: Drivers can access 1099 and tax summary information through their personal online driver account at www.lyft.com/drive/dashboard
The individual can click on ‘Tax Information’ for access to their 1099 tax form. Earnings summaries can be accessed by selecting ‘Driving History’. Earnings summaries are provided by ride, day, week and year.
Annual Tax information is provided by January 31 for the prior year.

Uber is basically the same at: drivers.uber.com  ... Postmates will redirect to Uber.

Doordash does not track the same way - annual will get a 1099-NEC if earnings are over $600 issued by payable.com. A DoorDash driver can log into the DoorDash information page for proof of payment history at:
https:/help.doordash.com/dashers/s/article/How-can-I-receive-proof-of-payment-history
A driver will have to submit a ‘Support Case’ to access the information

With all thanks and credit to Michele Gentry's class on Gig Income - I kept these notes handy.  Any mistakes are likely mine.
