Detailed Guide on How to Get a Check Stub from Uber

What Uber Earnings Statements Are

As an Uber driver, you operate as an independent contractor rather than an employee. Instead of receiving traditional paychecks, you receive earnings statements that detail how much you made during a given period. These statements include gross earnings, tips, Uber’s service fees or commissions, and other deductions. They function like a check stub because they show what you earned, what was deducted, and what you take home.

How to Access Your Earnings Statement via the Uber Driver App

To view or retrieve your earnings statement using the Uber Driver mobile app:

1. Open the Uber Driver app on your phone. Log in with your driver credentials.
2. Tap into the “Earnings” or “Income” section from the main menu or dashboard.
3. Select the week or pay period you want to see. The breakdown will show fares, tips, incentives, Uber fees, and deductions.
4. Look for an option to **download** the statement (often as PDF) or **email** it to yourself for later use.
5. Review the document carefully to make sure everything matches your records of trips, hours, and deductions.

How to Get Your Statement via the Uber Website (Desktop)

If you prefer using a computer or want a larger view, here’s how to access earnings statements from the desktop site:

1. Open your web browser and go to the Uber driver web portal. Log in with the account tied to your driving activity.
2. Navigate to the dashboard or menu area and select “Earnings.”
3. From there, choose “Statements” or the relevant section to view past pay periods.
4. Click the pay period you need—this will show you detailed earnings and deductions.
5. Download the statement as a PDF file or use the print option if a physical copy is needed.

What Information to Expect on Your Uber Earnings Statement

Your statement will include several key pieces of information:

• Total earnings from rides / fares, tips, bonuses or promotions
• Uber’s service fees, commission or platform fees
• Other deductions (for example tolls, certain charges if applicable)
• Net earnings (what you receive after all deductions)
• Dates defining the pay period
• If you use Uber’s tools for taxes, tax-related deductions or estimates may be shown

Why Saving Your Earnings Statements Matters

Keeping accurate records of your Uber earnings is important for several reasons:

• Tax filing: You’ll need your statements to prepare your taxes, especially if you do estimated tax payments.
• Loan and rental applications: They serve as proof of income.
• Dispute resolution: If Uber fees or trip earnings seem off, comparison with your own statement helps.
• Financial tracking: Helps you understand your expenses vs earnings, plan for non-driving costs, etc.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

• If you can’t see certain statements, wait — sometimes it takes time for Uber to process and post them.
• If your app or website is not showing the correct period, check that you are logged into the correct account.
• If download or print options are missing, check app or site settings; using a browser instead of mobile might help.
• If numbers seem incorrect (e.g. missing trips or tips, wrong fee), gather your records (trip logs) and contact Uber support.

Best Practices for Organizing Your Statements

To keep your Uber earnings well organized:

• Save each earnings statement as soon as it becomes available.
• Create folders by year or by month so retrieval is easy when needed.
• Use cloud storage backups and also keep a local copy.
• Review each statement to ensure deductions and fees look correct.
• Compare statement totals with your bank deposits to ensure everything matches.
• If you need an example stub format for presentation, generate a sample pay stub now, and refer to the layout details in our Regular Pay Stub guide.
