I want to file 2015 taxes but I was undocumented at the time, and paid entirely in cash tips. I kept a record of my income but cannot get pay stubs or a W2. My old employer will not be able to offer assistance.

Please follow the instructions below to report your cash income:

Click Federal Taxes -> Wages & Income and scroll down to Less Common Income
Go to the last selection, Miscellaneous Income and click Start
Go to the last option, Other reportable income and click Start
Proceed through the interview to enter your income.

This amount should be included in Line 21, Other Income on your 1040.

Let me now if you have further questions.
