Reporting part-time earnings while on benefits after 10 years as an office manager

I picked up part-time shifts as an office manager and I am confused about how to report them. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. The form asks for gross earnings, which I do not see until later. Who can I ask without risking my claim?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

In my state the question was about the week I worked, not the week I was paid. Read the wording on your form carefully, or ask the claims line.
