During my 3rd semester I exceeded my working hours:
One week I worked 25.99 and 4 hours the other week - 30 in one pay check
A few months later I accidentally worked:
One week - 20.15 the next week 15 - 35 in one pay check
And then 20.15 and 22 hours - 42 in one pay check.
I know it is a mistake and I know I should have checked my hours. I have never exceeded my hours after these stupid mistakes.
It is my last year of school, and this mistake happened 2 years ago. Maybe someone can share their experience/advice.

If IRCC finds out, you will be hanged.

up to you
The thing is, I consulted the immigration consultant and she said that they only check the amount of money I make per month, so if the pay is not like 5,000 dollars(which is impossible in most cases, when you work 20 hours per week) and if there is nothing suspicious in the application, they would not check the hours. However, I am still worried because who knows maybe they can see the paystubs through CRA

will they check the bank account? or just those that are declared on our sin number?

I have the same problem, my manager accidentally calculated my hours for 2 weeks with 40.75 hrs. she added my unpaid break on it, but she will deduct the over hours on my next pay. Will I be in trouble because of this? will IRCC be able to see that correction?

By the way, you can ask your employer whether they report the hours too, or just the amount you have earned
