My background verification says that they did not receive any response from one of my previous employers and also from the university from which I obtained my Bachelor’s.

Will this be a problem?

Potentially. They need to verify the claims you made on your resume. They will work with you to get it resolved but it can lead to a rescinded offer

Oh no! Should I try reaching out to the recruiter?

Yes. A previous employer not responding is one thing, but definitely need to resolve the university issue.

Thw university is in India. The report says that written request was sent to registrar’s office but response is awaited.

This happened to me and I provided pay stubs, tax forms, and a degree certificate.

Did you submit these documents voluntarily or were you asked to? I was asked to submit these early last week and I provided the documentation promptly

Normally verification is done using third parties, is your employer using any such services?

Then you should be good. It’s not a red flag & just as the employer/university didn’t respond doesn’t mean they can void the offer.
The verification companies send emails to employers/universities witha particular language, that would say if no response received within x days they would assume it’s positive.

Hi Team,

I love my fiancé and we’ve been together for 5+ years but I don’t enjoy the company of their family. A few reasons include: homophobia, rude MIL, and recently their brother invading my physical boundaries/resulting in giving me creeps.

We’ve already discussed and my fiancé supports instilling boundaries. I’m always civil but thinking about how I’ll always have these people in my life makes me so anxious. Tips on how to move forward when you’re stuck with people you don’t care for?
