DoorDash 1099 with 4 dependents - Will I owe IRS money on $9k?

With 4 dependents and that income level, you'll likely qualify for Earned Income Credit (EIC) and Child Tax Credit. You probably won't owe, and might get a decent refund. But you should set aside money for taxes next time since no taxes were withheld from your DoorDash earnings.

Hey! You should check out taxr.ai - its this new tool that can look at your transcripts and tell you exactly what credits youll qualify for and what you might owe. Its only $4.99 and totally worth it for peace of mind

in the same boat! did DD last year and stressed about taxes. track ur miles next time, it helps a ton with deductions

remember to save receipts for car maintenance and phone bills too theyre deductible

bruh why u stressing bout 9k when u got 4 kids? ur gonna get paid trust 💯

make sure u file those kids as dependents correctly tho. IRS be clownin people who mess that up 🤡

Just wanted to add - definitely file for the Child Tax Credit and Additional Child Tax Credit if you qualify! With 4 kids and that income level, you could be looking at up to $2,000 per child. Also, since you're doing gig work, make sure you're tracking business expenses like phone bills, car expenses, etc. for next year. The standard mileage deduction is usually the way to go for delivery drivers. Don't stress too much - sounds like you'll probably come out ahead with those credits!
