What is the name of your state? Ohio
First and foremost, i apologize if this is posted in the wrong area.
Under the Table / Under the Counter Payment:
My situation is that i am a 21 year old college student. Approximately 4 months ago i began to work as a cashier for a family friend at their beverage store (no liquor; just beer, wine, cigs, and groceries). I am paid under the counter. I have decided to quit because the fear of going to jail, tax fraud, etc has caused me to lose sleep.
My question is of the legal penalties that i could suffer if i or the store was to get caught. Since i am over 18, i want to know if i can go to jail for this. I currently live with my parents and am a dependant of them. My father files my taxes. Am i putting my parents at legal risk as well?
I know it was a very unintelligent decision to accept a job under the counter. I realize that now. I just want to know what can happen to me legally.
Thank you.
