    You still have a job right? One job in hand is still way better than an unknown job in a land thousands of miles away. Why get depressed? It was just an interview. Many times when internal project are involved they do the extra rigorous scrutiny.

    Inform the employer about the same, and continue with your existing job while the verification completes.

    This is my opinion not legal advice.
