As per our TurboTax article: Tax Tips for Uber Drivers in Canada

What Expenses Can Uber Drivers Claim?

Deductible expenses are what helps lower your tax owing, so be sure to claim all your eligible costs – not all of which are obvious. These include:

 

  • App Fees (including service fees, booking fees and other fees such as airport, city or split fare fees)
  • Gas, oil, windshield washer fluid, brake fluid, antifreeze and other maintenance expenses 
  • Repairs and routine oil changes 
  • Tires (including the cost of balancing/installation) 
  • Lease payments 
  • Car washes/detailing 
  • Supplies such as pens/paper 
  • A portion of cell phone expenses
  • Capital cost allowance (CCA) on the vehicle
