[MN] Background check fiasco

Hello, I recently accepted a new role and am going through the background check right now. The initial results came in and had some mistakes. I added a consumer statement explaining why the results were incorrect and what I had on my resume was true. Details are below.

  1. A previous employer stated I did not have the accounting role I held after college. Only a more recent part time role I had for extra short term cash.

I did have the accounting role, I attached my offer letter, W2, and email chains with the start date on it as backup.

  1. My university stated I did not graduate.

I did graduate and attached my transcript stating I graduated, and an email from the registrar with the Dean CC’d where they confirmed the mistake and confirmed my graduation.

I’m having a lot of anxiety that they will rescind the offer, I did not lie on the resume or application. I have no criminal history, everything else came back correct for my current role etc. I have already put in my resignation at my current employer. I have also communicated the issues with the new companies recruiter to keep her updated. What more can I do?
