Your address is probably part of a public record. For example, when you pay your property taxes or income taxes, your address is required. The government keeps track of this information and can look it up.

Courts often have your social security number and date of birth, as well as legal name. So when you sign up for a job you release this information.

If you work for cash "i. e. under the table" they won't know. However, if your employer is reputable they will have to keep tax records for the IRS. The courts have only to make a request to information to the IRS and they will have all of your documented work experience.

Most frequently, it is because someone submits the information, like a company you owe money or an ex-spouse, to the court and the court verifies the information provided.

You sign W-4 forms when you start a new job somewhere. Those are filed with the government. So they have those records in their computer and can find out where you're working. If you're working off the books all they have to do is ask around town, someone will spill the beans on you.

The court can review state and local tax records to determine your place of employment. This is a frequent practice in child support cases and court judgments.
