Cash in hand work??

(Cairns)

I've been told that it is possible to get paid cash in hand sometimes when fruit picking. Is this accurate and common practice? I don't have a working visa but now need to work to earn much needed cash. I'm in Cairns at present but would definitely travel to where ever i could get a cash in hand job. Thanks for any help you can provide.

It is possible but you would have to contact the farmers direstly because I don't know any places like that because it is against the law, and you could get deported if not an Australian Citizen.
