This is the first year I have worked on my own and not for a company. My business is very small, as I only clean 1 to 2 peoples houses a week. I know it seems crazy but they pay me well. I would like to file taxes, but all I have record of is the amount in cash that I am paid each week. I am new to this so I did not keep in mind to save all my receipts for products, although I have saved nearly every gas receipt. Can I still file without the receipts for expenses? I do not want to get in trouble... And I know this has probably been answered, but if I do file with only the cash amount paid recorded, what should I file as and on what papers?
Thanks a bunch,
Chelsea from Louisiana
