You should definitely get receipts! God forbid that something goes wrong between you and your landlord one day, but if you pay in cash without a receipt, she can kick you out at any time by claiming that you have not paid her. If you want to continue to use cash, you should either get a receipt from her, or pay her in money order form (I think they cost about $3 and they come with a receipt!) If you are on good terms with your landlord, you should definitely ask if she can write you out some receipts or print you up a ledger on the company's letterhead that shows that you have paid rent. If I were you, I wouldn't risk getting audited because it's probably a headache to fill out all the forms ect.

In most states your landlord is required to give receipts. What happens at the end of your lease and she claims you didn't pay the last 3 months? I hope you trust her a lot because with paying cash and no receipt you have no proof that you paid her anything.
