My teen daughter babysat part time for a woman from January through March of this year and then quit the job. The total she earned was less than $1,500.00. The mom would like a tax receipt for 2018.
My daughter probably will not continue doing child care, or if she does it will only be part time or occasionally, and she will not be babysitting for this mom again.
In this situation would you suggest that your daughter get an EID number to use on the tax receipt, or would you feel safe just using her social security number?
Are there any downsides to having an EID? I'm thinking she may be audited more often since it will appear that she is a teen age business owner! But she's just a 16 year old babysitter!
