If my client wins $15,000 cash at the casino do they have to complete the form 8300? I have never done one for a individual taxpayer client. Thanks in advance

Then it's probably not cash received in a trade or business.

They gamble a lot but have never shown them as professional gamblers so the answer is NO.
