    If the bar owner is working above board, you'll have to supply your PPSN and DOB for tax purposes. If there's a mismatch, Revenue will notice, and you'll be rumbled.

    I've never applied for a job in a bar, but any publican with an ounce of common sense would make sure his bar staff are legit. The penalties for allowing a minor to work behind a bar are quite severe IIRC. Just apply for a lounge boy job and gte on with it.

    besides, it's very doubtful that you'll get a job as a bar man as pubs/clubs tend to go for people with lots of experience.

    Just stick to Maccy D's :)
