1099 more than I made

You get paid on the gross. You take all deductions on Schedule C, that equals the net that you are looking for.

 

Op
Spend 250 bucks and get a CPA to do it for you if your not familiar with the process.

 

Sounds right - if they were taking out fuel card deductions, insurance etc.

Your settlements should reflect these, the 1099 won’t.

 

Their 1099 is of secondary relevance. The may not even send one at all.
You go by your own income receipts. For example, the rate confirmations and check stubs, I don't even look at anyone's 1099. I know precisely what was paidandby whom.

 

You do have the settlement receipts?

You should have gone through them every time you got paid.

 

The irs gets your gross. NOT what was deposited in to your bank.

It's your job to file the deductions.

My 1099 came with a breakdown. I just had to add per diem and other misc.

 

So basically they charged you back, deducted costs from settlements. Had they “paid” for everything, plates, fuel taxes and whatever, Your gross would match your earnings. Make an itemized list, give it to tax Professional. Not worth trying to save a few hundred bucks, doing it yourself, it will surely cost much more in missed deductions.
