What if I didn t keep any of my records or receipts?
The IRS allows reconstruction of your income and expenses based on economic realty (income you reasonably would have made and reasonable expenses you would have had to support yourself and/or family) and on “Industry Standard”. If you are a self-employed plumber they have statistics on the average income and expenses for self employed plumbers and will use those statistics as a guide.
