If your dancing earnings were in 'cash', and if the club doesn't issue IRS 1099 forms, then the odds are much lower that a 'dancer's license' will turn up in a background check. The odds of that happening are typically related to whether or not the local licensing jurisdiction maintains 'searchable' online records ( versus a file cabinet with 'paper' ), whether the prospective 'sensitive' employer is local or 'distant', whether your own address given to the 'sensitive' employer is in the same jurisdiction where the dancer's license was issued, etc. Or put another way, a dancer who lives in NJ who is applying for a job with a 'sensitive' NY employer faces near zero risk of an Atlanta or Vegas dancer's license turning up in the background check. But the situation could be different for a dancer who lives in Honolulu who is applying for a job with a 'sensitive' Honolulu employer having a Honolulu dancer's license turn up.
