Tax Receipt

[treeholm]

Whether or not she wanted a receipt, you are still obligated to declare the income. If you ask for the difference now, it is tantamount to admitting that you were working under the table. If a parent told me they didn't need a receipt, I would say they are welcome to shred it, if they like, but by law, I am obligated to provide it. It just boggles my mind that a parent would tell you, basically, to cheat the government so they can pay a lower rate. If I knew from the beginning that a parent wanted me to do something unethical, I could never trust that parent. That would have been a huge red flag for me.
