Not paying taxes on personal business in background check

I have owned my own business the past 7 years of my life. At the peak of it, I was making nearly 10k annually, which I put on my resume. I accepted my SA offer at a BB, and just received papers on my background check.

I never paid taxes on my business, and just took that money and helped pay for college tuition, car, & other expenses.

Should I worry that the money I made never showed up on a tax return....yet showed up on my resume? Can I provide a list of all 30 of my customers accounts and phone numbers/ contact information if they questioned me more indepth?

Basically, is this going to be a problem?
