Ok so I happened to stumbled across the 1099 problem yesterday while reading the boards. Then I read the thread about the member who was a respiratory therapist that got fined and a ding on her license because she used to be a stripper. They only found out about it when she went to renew her license for RT and had to sign releasing her IRS statements or whatever it's called to be seen. I guess this is a new thing so that they can deny you renewal of your license if you fall behind on student loans.
My problem is I was planning on stripping until I move for school, so that I have money to live off of while I can't work during the nursing program. But if this is going to bite me in the butt and keep me from nursing, there's no point in doing it and I have no idea what to do to raise that kind of money quickly. I was really excited for this and got everything ready for ammy night next week.
Can someone explain to me how this 1099 thing works and how they'd find out later I was an "adult entertainer"? How would they know I wasn't a bartender or waitress at the club? Can I file taxes saying I'm a bartender or waitress not dancer? I've read several things from nurses saying they used to strip or knew people who used to strip that are successful nurses now, but that RT thread really scared me.
Can anyone clarify?
