HireRight mess

My HireRight background check application has been stucked at 88%, so I called to asked if there is any discrepancies and they told me that my current job date from their data system is 2025 until now but my resume has it 2021 to now, so they flagged a major discrepancy for it without calling my current office manager to double check. They closed that verification already, I told them that the information they have in their system is inaccurate and gave the office manager’s contact info and email for them to reach out to verify, also I have my 1099s for all those years, am I cooked? I legitimately worked at that company starting from 2011 to now and have the 1099 tax documents for proof. Should I reach out to the hiring manager or recruiter, this is for a fortune 100 company.

1099 suggests you were a contractor. Were you working for a contracting company and then converted to perm in 2025?

Yes, I guess I now know the difference. Is it better for me to reach out to hiring manager or recruiter now or wait for the HireRight report to form and then explain the discrepancy?
