First, you should register to get your stimulus payments if you haven’t received them. You will need to file a 2020 tax return in the next few weeks. Click on this link.

Did you apply for unemployment? If you had earned income and reported it in 2018 or 2019, you should file for traditional unemployment at IDES.gov.Illinois You won’t get that, but you might qualify for self-employed (PUA) unemployment benefits.
This is really a complicated process. Check with other Uber drivers in your area. Most of them have likely filed already.
