It depends.
Alot of the companies only provide a 1099 that reflects the income after the fuel and maintenance is deducted.

If you're doing your quarterly taxes,,

You probably got Advances to use for Fuel. You deduct the amount of fuel you paid out, for the reason you don't pay taxes on the fuel. Fuel is not considered as income,but rather an expense..
