1099 Tax Forms FAQ

Actualizada 

You should have received an email from Stripe (express@stripe.com) with instructions about how to confirm your tax information and tax information delivery preference (e-delivery or mail). Regardless of your delivery preference, it's important that you verify both your email address and postal address with Stripe to ensure tax forms are sent to the right place.

For faster access to your tax documents, you can set your delivery preference to electronic "e-delivery". Please confirm your information using the link provided in the email from Stripe. You’ll be asked to create a Stripe Express account and confirm your information is up to date to receive your 1099 form for the tax year.

If you're eligible to receive a 1099 tax form, you'll receive an email notification by January 31st, 2025. If you enable e-delivery, you’ll be able to access your 1099 tax form immediately, as soon as it’s available. Otherwise, paper forms will be delivered by February 15th, 2025.

A 1099-NEC form summarizes your earnings as an independent contractor. It’s provided to you and the IRS, as well as some US states, if you earned $600 or more as a contractor in the last tax year.

You can review your payment history on Stripe Express. The Transactions page displays your upcoming payouts and earnings history through the activity feed. When reviewing your payouts, make sure that you do not include any payouts from previous tax years. For any earnings you cashed out, keep in mind that you paid a $1.99 cash-out fee.

The following are edge cases:

  • Deliveries performed in 2024 but paid in 2025 will not be included in your 2024 earnings.

  • Deliveries performed in 2023 but paid in 2024 will be included in your 2024 earnings.

  • If the payment was initiated by Gopuff in 2024 but your bank deposited the money into your account in 2025, it will not be included in your 2024 earnings.

We want to ensure that information like your name, address, and Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) are up-to-date so that your 1099 tax form is accurate and sent to the right place.

Please double-check your spam or junk mail folder for an email with the subject line “Get your Gopuff 2024 tax forms faster by enabling e-delivery.” If you haven’t received this email from Stripe, please initiate a chat directly in Gopuff Driver app by selecting the Account tab -> Get Support -> Contact and Feedback -> Contact Support -> Start Conversation

1099 tax forms are typically finalized in January. If you meet the income thresholds above (as stated above), Stripe will send you a link to download a copy of your 1099 tax form (or mail a paper form if you prefer).

A link has been provided in the email sent to you from Stripe to create/access your Stripe Express account. You can also log in by visiting connect.stripe.com/express_login.

From there, you can follow the prompts to verify your information, keeping these points in mind:

  1. Verify you provided a correct Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and associated name on your Stripe account, even if you are no longer actively partnering with Gopuff.

    1. If you are entering your Social Security Number (SSN) as TIN, make sure you enter your first and last name in the exact same way it appears on your SSN card (including non-corrected typos).

    2. If you decide to enter your business Employer Identification Number (EIN), make sure you enter your business name instead of your first and last name. Enter the Business name exactly as it is registered.

  2. Verify your email address is up-to-date and does not have typos.

  3. Verify your postal address is up-to-date, that you’ve entered all required information in the appropriate lines without any typos.

If you're eligible to receive one, you can find the tax form directly in your Stripe Express Account dashboard under the Tax Forms tab.

You will need to edit your name, TIN, and address directly in Stripe Express. However, if you believe your total earnings should be modified or if you need a 1099 tax form split between two or more legal entities, you’ll need to contact Gopuff Driver Support. In your request, include the legal entity information (legal name/TIN) for both businesses and the exact split date.
