Student: Accidentally put in extra hours in my pay hour sheet (so my biweekly shows 44 hrs instead of the allowed 40hrs).

So I made a mistake in inputting my working hours on two of my older pay stubs. During this fall, my work schedule goes as follows: 8/8/4 hrs for Mon/Tue/Wed. On two occasions, I mistakenly put in extra hours so 8/8/8 instead. I have documented evidence that shows that I communicated this to my manager, and we simply cut the extra hours from the next paycheck to balance the amount paid.

But if I were to apply for permit extension/PR later, will this come back to bite me?

To clarify, I did *not* work more than 20 hrs per week, it was an accounting error in typing on my part. Every other paycheck shows either 40hrs/biweekly or lower. Can I convince them this was a mistake and not an attempt to work more than I'm legally allowed to?

Note: this is before the working hour lift last November.

Really stressed here guys, hope you can help. Thanks!
