No. Veho pays driver partners for the successful completion of a route, not by the hour and not by the mile. There is no per-mile figure anywhere in the pay structure, which means there is no mileage number in the app for you to carry over to your tax return. A Veho route is a full day of driving that leaves no record behind.
Why route-based pay hides the miles
When a platform pays per mile, at least a distance figure exists somewhere, even if it is the wrong distance for tax purposes. Veho's model skips that step entirely. You accept a route, you complete it, you get paid a route amount. Veho's own driver materials describe earnings as depending on market, route selection, day of the week, and how long the route takes to complete. Distance is not part of how the payment is described, so distance is not part of what you are shown.
What a Veho day of driving actually contains
- The drive from home to the warehouse or pickup point to collect your route
- The drive from the warehouse to your first stop
- The stop-to-stop driving across the whole route, often 40 to 60 addresses
- Backtracking for a missed or refused delivery
- The drive to return undeliverable packages
- The drive home at the end of the route
The warehouse legs and the drive home are the ones drivers most often fail to claim. The stop-to-stop driving is obviously work. The 25 miles out to the facility at the start of a route and the 25 miles home at the end are just as real, and unless the facility is your regular workplace under the commuting rule, the trips your route requires you to make are business driving.
How big is the number?
A single suburban route with 50 stops commonly runs 90 to 120 miles of driving once the warehouse legs are included. Four routes a week at 100 miles each is 400 miles a week, or 20,000 miles across a 50-week year. At 76 cents per mile that is $15,200 in deductions. At 72.5 cents it is $14,500. Neither figure appears anywhere in your Veho earnings history.
What does Veho report to the IRS?
Veho reports what it paid you. Driver partners are independent contractors, so payments arrive without withholding and without any statement about your expenses. That leaves you responsible for your own quarterly estimated tax payments, and it makes the mileage deduction the main lever you have to reduce what you owe.
What rate applies to 2026 driving?
72.5 cents per mile for routes driven from January 1 through June 30, 2026, and 76 cents per mile for routes driven from July 1 through December 31, 2026. Routes driven across that boundary have to be totaled separately for each half of the year.
What kind of log does the IRS accept?
A contemporaneous log capturing the date, the mileage, and the business purpose while the work is happening. Reconstructing a year of routes from your payment history in April is not a log, and it will systematically undercount, because a payment record knows a route was completed and knows nothing about how far you drove to complete it.
Where does it go on the return?
On Schedule C, line 9, against your Veho income. The step-by-step version is in how to claim mileage on your taxes.
