Man I have nothing to add other than I hope you take a look in the mirror and realize that this is blatantly dishonest and you deserve to get caught.

Good luck with your future but my advice would be to refrain from doing this again

 

Let me know how this goes, interested how this works out for you.

If they say they didn’t see on background check you could say it was unpaid thus not on your taxes…

Overall though this is a bad idea

 

Not saying you should lie - but I’ve had unpaid internships before and they don’t / can’t really check it. If the background agency can’t find the company, they don’t press on it like that. Usually you say on the online form if it’s paid/unpaid, and it’s assumed if unpaid, it’s not gonna show up anywhere (ie. W2, etc), so they move on to something thats actually in the system, like chase bank. You should be fine. But don’t lie like this, it will come back eventually someway. Good luck though!
