Being that we have to claim that as income during tax time, what do you guys write off during taxes? Do you keep track of mileage? What are your expenses? Basically im trying to think of ways to save myself some money come tax time next year.(Im a college student also with another part time job, money means a lot!) Thanks in advance!
You imply above that not receiving a 1099 means you don't have to claim income during tax time. If that is so, you are mistaken.

Even if you only worked once at a school and only earned $10 from them, you have to claim it on your taxes. Income is income. How much only affects when the paying party must file a 1099...not its taxibility.
