...While such a retroactive finding might in fact result in checks to dancers for $2.95 an hour back pay, it could also have very negative consequences. For example, if an IRS audit finds that a club is in fact an "employer" and that its dancers are in fact "employees", what happens to the business expense tax deductions which the dancers have claimed on their own taxes in previous years i.e. stage fees, travel & accomodation expenses, etc. which are not eligible EMPLOYEE business expenses ?
