I have a coworker that does work on the side. (construction). He makes about $20,000 a year from just this and doesn't claim ANY of it on taxes. It makes me so mad because I also do work on the side and claim it all. Is there a number I can call to get him audited?

You can report your suspicions by filling out the form linked below. Before you do so, be ABSOLUTELY SURE that your facts are straight. Your coworker may just be blowing smoke!

But why should you care what he is doing? You are doing the right thing by your set of rules and what you think is right, so why does it matter? It seems pretty childish. I agree that people SHOULD pay their taxes properly, but if someone does not, why would you tattle on them? It seems that your life would be better off worrying about yourself, if you do not want to claim those taxes than don't, but no reason to be in someone else's business. Humans do this sort of childish game all the time, it is not good enough for you to be living lawfully, but someone else has to be wrong and you be the one to point it out. Will you feel better than? If so, take a look at what happiness means to you.

I suggest you to open a brokerage account and invest that money in the Stock Market with the help of a Portfolio Manager like myself if you can afford it or at least a Financial Advisor.
I am willing to help you for FREE so you can turn those $20,000.00 into $200,000.00 if you forget about the whole thing.

I'm sure the IRS has a whistleblower's number. Check on their website at irs.gov

contact your local IRS office, they will send you a form, can't remember the name of it, and you can complete it and submit it anonymously
