I know that to count as unemployed you have to have sought work in the last 4 weeks. Thing is, when I was unemployed, I wasn’t qualified for unemployment benefits and I wasn’t telling anybody about my applications besides the people I was applying to. I doubt the dollar store is filing every application with the government. Now I get by on freelance work; how does the government know I’m employed? Is there some website I’m supposed to go to and check a box?

Well, if you’re making over a certain amount you need to do your taxes. This alone will show the government you have income.
