So, on weekends I often would do housework for family members. I didn't give them receipts, which obviously I should have. I need to report this as income, but all I have is my memory telling me what they paid. If there was an audit on me (unlikely but always a possibility) how would I prove what was paid to me? Do they look at my bank account? I didn't always deposit the cash into my account though. So say one month I made 400, maybe I deposited 200. Would they ask my family members to confirm the amount that was paid to me?
I guess I'm just worried somehow something will come back to bite me in the butt for not keeping better records.
