DoorDash typically sends 1099 forms (through Stripe Express) by January 31 of the following tax year, either electronically or by mail, depending on your delivery preference.

How DoorDash Sends 1099s

  • DoorDash uses Stripe Express to generate and deliver most Dasher 1099s (usually 1099‑NEC; occasionally 1099‑K depending on how you’re paid).
  • If you opt into electronic delivery, your 1099 is usually available online by January 31 , and you’ll get an email from Stripe Express with a link to view/download it.
  • If you do not opt into e‑delivery, Stripe/DoorDash will mail a paper copy, which can take up to about 10 business days after the January 31 deadline to arrive.

Key Timing For “When Will DoorDash Send 1099”

  • For a given tax year (for example, 2025 income), expect:
    • Email notifications and online access via Stripe Express by January 31 of the following year (2026 in that example).
* Mailed forms to arrive in early to mid‑February, assuming normal postal delays.
  • Some guidance for Dashers notes that Stripe may start sending emails in phases before January 31, and that “mid‑January” is often when people first begin seeing those emails.

What To Do If You Haven’t Gotten It

  • Log in to your Stripe Express or Dasher account and check the tax/earnings section to see if the 1099 is already available to download, even if you missed the email.
  • Confirm your email, address, and SSN/EIN are correct in Stripe Express so there are no delivery issues.
  • If it’s past early February and you still do not see a form online or in the mail, you can:
    1. Contact DoorDash support and ask about your 1099.
    2. Contact Stripe support if DoorDash indicates Stripe is responsible for the form.

Quick Facts For Dashers

  • You generally only get a 1099 if you earned $600 or more from DoorDash in the tax year.
  • Even if you do not receive a 1099, you are still required to report your DoorDash earnings on your tax return.
