hi everyone, i would like to start dancing relatively soon and i had some questions about taxes and dancers that are in school and the like (i know little about doing taxes even after reading many of the threads on here!)
ok, here's the situation. i am in school, my parents pay my rent & cell phone (even though my name is on the lease/bill--i have to pay them back after i graduate though), they also currently declare me on their taxes (and i do NOT want them knowing that i dance, which i think they would be if i made enough that i had to declare myself--they're very religious and would be extremely upset). how do i deal with this? will a club send a report of my money earned to the irs? i have no other bills other than living & school expenses (no credit cards, car payments, etc) but would like to dance b/c i've always wanted to and it should help with the costs of books, etc.
i know this was probably really hard to follow but i dont even know where to begin with the money management aspect of dancing (besides save, save, save of course!). what are the basics i need to stay out of trouble with the irs and keeping my parents semi-clueless to the fact that their baby girl takes her clothes off for strangers? i'd also prefer not to have a trail saying that i danced in college because of future chances of employment...but that's another board altogether.
thanks so much for any help you can give,
