Reporting part-time earnings while on benefits (Charlotte)

My hours change every week at my new part-time job and I am afraid of reporting wrongly. Thank you in advance. Sometimes my paycheck is late by a week. Do you report when you earned it or when you were paid?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 11 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I estimated and then checked my pay stub. When there was a small difference I wrote to the agency to correct it.
