You cannot be sanctioned for this reason. They may take longer to calculate your payment but it is not something you should be sanctioned for.

I don't think it is reasonable to expect someone to be checking their journal on a Sunday and, if they even do, updating all that information the same day. You should not be sanctioned at all for this. Please do let us know how you get on @charl1980

I am just a person that panics I don't think they will sanction me for this I don't really have a advisor as I'm on lcwra but I still worry

They only request earnings and expenses details if you're self employed, these need to be reported on the last day of each assessment period.

When PAYE your employer should report earnings to HMRC and UC then check with them. You do not need to report earnings in this case.

Have you checked your online tax account? The issue you may have here is that if you report your earnings and your employer reports them then it will show as double the amount of earnings, which wouldn't be correct. This could then affect your next payment.

Apparently my employer did not report my earnings according to them they required that info on their request
