A: Yes. Just be honest. You create issues by hiding things or telling half truths. Legally you are going to be imputed minimum wage. You cannot hurt yourself by being honest. Speak with a local family lawyer for more specific advice.

A: In the financial affidavit, there's a dedicated section for reporting self-employment income. It's important to regularly estimate your monthly earnings and update your financial information accordingly. For guidance on your specific situation, consider consulting a family law attorney.
