I posted about the HMRC reporting almost a year ago or more and was side eyed by a few others I believe. What many civvies do not understand is that information is freely shared once it is electronic and what they tell you is not what actually happens. THEY = AGENCIES
What that poster needs to do is get an accountant to sort out her finances and open a few accounts to spread out her income deposits.
LLoyds bank is a good bank and once you have a "legit" source of income, they will leave you alone and happily take your deposits. Only problem is that they are closing so many branches it is hard to deposit cash.
I've had business and personal account with LLoyds since 2008 no problems banking cash. But I have my business down as holistic therapy.
You can pay in at all post offices.
The OP if claiming UC - could face jail time, fines and benefit fraud charges.
If PIP then any amount she earns doesn't affect her.
My friend was working as a sex worker and claiming housing benefit and tax credits etc - before UC came out.
They caught her out because a woman reported her saying her partner was living with her, when she told benefits she was single.
They sold a few puppies via freeads, they found their ads and done her on that alone! Proved she was selling puppies at £200 each.
She had a caution and had to repay back all benefits or face prison.
And she worked in a parlour and didn't bank any cash - so luckily they didn't have her on that but they wrote too all banks who provided the income and went through everything like a fine tooth comb.
