[QUOTE="shaneb, post: 5017757, member: 598696"] Yes, everyone, even dependents file a claim, but they file under their parents, my gf is a dependent, her parents filed for her, the person who is over the dependent is completely capable of filing for the dependent, there is a chance, that his parents do this for him so he doesn't have to deal with it, but likely, since they have a business, they send it to their accountant to do it for them. Secondly, by law, technically, selling things online is a source of income, so technically i believe that anyone on here who sells and does not report it on their taxes, is breaking the law. However there may be some way of getting around it because they are selling it to a "friend" and it's not a business...that all gets quite technical. Furthermore, it is, like I said earlier, silly that you would call your "friends" at the IRS, who are probably no more than data entry college drop outs or they are filing aids to someone important, to "go after him" because he makes 100k a year in cash, he's a dependent, and he works for dad's business, is not even worth the money or man hours spent on "the case" that doesn't even exist. Drop it, find somewhere else to whip your utility belt out. To the OP - I apologize if I am aiding to the thread jacking-ness of your thread, I think you got a pretty good answer to your question so I hope you aren't upset. [/QUOTE]
