Cute but fanged

Oh trust me, we know what we see when someone with no work history all of a sudden starts getting right around 10-12k self-employment on their earnings record.

A guy who recently retired made it his mission to burn EITC cheats, no matter how much we told him he was pissing in the wind.

Dunno why he'd stress about it, the IRS seems to put a fair amount of effort into finding earned income credit hijinks on their own judging by my experiences as a preparer (and the amount of time they spend threatening me if I gently caress around with it myself, of course, not that I blame them given how tax fraud is typically pulled off). Oddly enough I'd say with all the rideshare/delivery app stuff you're actually getting a lot more legitimate low-level self employment income people these days anyway since all the jobless/minimally employed jump for it. Boy they do NOT like learning about how income + SE tax works out when you don't have an employer withholding them for you (or the high price every tax software/preparer charges once you've wandered into the Business Income Zone, because we know how bad you will gently caress it up without a lot of trained professional help ("I need to know my mileage? Why?" :rolleyes:)).
