Will my illegal work affect my Express Entry application?

I’ve been a graduate student for almost 2 years now. I took a leave of absence last fall for less than 150days because I was having some financial difficulties. The thing is that I had accidentally worked for about 2months during that time and when I found out it was illegal, I stopped the work immediately.

I will be graduating next winter but I have also been invited to apply for PR through skilled worker program and I’ll list my illegal work on my statement of purpose. Do you think it will jeopardize my application? What should I do? Your response will be kindly appreciated. Thanks.
