| deadbeat employer My daughter worked for a private dance school in California. She got paid $150. but then stiffed on the remaining wages (maybe another $125). Other employees got stiffed too although amazingly the school might still be operating. I've suggested that my daughter go through the Labor Board or Small Claims Court but right now she has been too busy and feels she would lose more $$$ than it's worth (although I think legally she could get 30 days more in wages --- but this owner appears to be a real deadbeat). My question pertains to taxes. My daughter has not received any W2 form and I suspect none will be forthcoming. Her friends advised her to ignore it completely as $150 is too low to make a big deal of. I disagree and feel she should do a Substitute W2 form or else she could get into a big (??) hassle with the IRS at some point. Can I get some practical advice here about what she should do.
