  • Answer:

    You can work for a family owned business, but unlikely any other business would want to take a chance. Their insurance probably does not allow them to hire you.

Which country are you in? If you are in Australia it is illegal to employ anyone under the age of 14 years, this varies slightly from State to State. It really doesn't matter how old you look when you need to provide your date of birth and tax file number to your employer.

To get a real job you need to provide social security number, and proof that you are of legal age to work, which is 16.
