What is the process to become an Uber driver? What are the steps?
The first thing you need to do to drive for Uber is complete the driver application and create an Uber account. Then, you upload your Driver's License, Official Receipt (OR) and Certificate of Registration (CR) of your car, and a valid NBI Clearance.
You must have a TNVS accreditation from the LTFRB.
An Uber driver needs to get TNVS Accreditation in accordance with the LTFRB Ridesharing Regulation. Most applicants start to get confused or impatient with this, but just to make it clear for everybody: Once you have submitted all documentary requirements, Uber will do all the footwork to make sure you get your accreditation and your CPC (Certificate of Public Convenience) Franchise. This means you don't have to go to the LTFRB office once you've signed up.
However, you have to submit CPC requirements to Uber within your first 30 days of operating: BIR Certificate of Registration, DTI Business Name Registration, PNP Clearance, Proof of Financial Capability, among others. Uber will be giving a complete list of these requirements and will update you the status of your application via SMS or email.
To understand more of the LTFRB regulations, visit ltfrb.gov.ph and take some time to read the following:

How much do Uber drivers make?
You can expect to make around P1,500 a day, based on an average billing of P150 per trip for an average of 10 trips a day. If you're planning to drive for 6 days a week, you're bound to collect at least P36, 000 a month.
But of course, you have to deduct vehicle expenses. According to philkotse.com, weekly car wash (P320/mo), mobile loads for data (P1,000/mo), fuel consumption (P12,000/mo) and auto maintenance (P1,000/mo) can set you back for about P14, 320 per month. This means you keep around P21, 680 earnings a month.
When you have a driver doing the work for you, deduct at least P12, 400 salary from the net total and you earn around P9, 280 a month.
To maximize your earnings, make yourself a business plan. Income can vary quite a bit based on your location, the day of the week, and the time of day. Most drivers maximize their income by driving on different hours, days and times and seeing what works best.
