Nice try, but is not my thing (not that there is anything wrong with that).

^ Yea nothing wrong if you swing that way but I certainly do not. Haha. Nope. I honestly don't think I could ever do it for any amount of money. Party must include Chloe

I file as a part time student as well as occupation landscaper with dependants, the only problem the girls are gonna face is proving they work your tax return isnt ample enough evidence they need
Letters with names numbers and addresses signed by their clientel base stating how much they pay how often or hours they work and reason they are letting go of service. ( trust me they call i actually filled out a letter for someone)As well she will have to send in back receipts or bankstatements to prove what she truly makes.. (your deposits must match up or they will deny you say reciept says 21420 your deposit statememt should show the same day they are very very particular on this,its best to say you domt have amd get them to issue you a debit card dont do direct deposit)
Trust me unemployment isnt like irs they audit that ass on the spot and if you dont produce and send in ample info they request and satisfy there standard you will owe back any amount plus 15% and possibly face federal fraud charges.. think carefully ladies get all the ducks in a row before you do this..

Its a million limes of red tape and for this reason I passed.

I totally agree with Lovelyxoxo. For a sex worker to apply for these benefits, you are going to have to do a lot of fibbing.

If you have already been paying taxes & have yourself set up as self-employed, it's not a huge deal since you already have the required background/documents to get the ball rolling, but if you have not paid taxes or have not gotten a DBA or set yourself up as an LLC, I wouldn't run out & do it now and I certainly would not create any fake or modified documents to submit to the IRS.

Even if everything goes your way now, I doubt it will stay that way forever. I have to assume that once life gets back to normal, the IRS & other government entities are going to be double & triple checking people that have applied and will begin "auditing/red flagging" many people that were approved based on lies/fake documents.

That is certainly the safe assumption. I suspect, tho, the IRS will be extremrly short-staffed as they deal with budget constraints caused by this virus...
