No 1099 from Uber. Do I report Gross Trip earnings or Net Trip Earnings? Well, you actually earned the $15,000, but Uber takes out fees and such that reduce it to $9,000 (the actual money you get in your bank account).

Do I need to file 1099 If I have F-1 visa?

Well, in fact your question has 2 sides. First, if you are non-resident alien on F-1 visa, the proper form to receive is 1042-S not 1099. The 1042-S covers all types of income reported on Form 1099 (which applies to US citizens and residents).

Do I get a 1099 tax form if I’m a student?

Yes and no. The big question is, do you have a US Social Security number. The 1099 forms are for US residents with a US SSN. Whether you are a student or not doesnt matter. If your here on a visa, that’s fine and doesnt matter. Do you have a SSN? If so, then you will receive a 1099 form.
