If the law of the country requires tax on this income, then taking it in cash to avoid the tax is not allowed. This is the fatwa of Shaykh Muhammad Hisham: by living in their land you accepted their terms, so you may not use trickery against what you agreed to. (this is 1 opinion and there are other opinions)
