Worried about Application/Background check

Longtime lurker, first time posting. So I’m at a crossroads and needed some personal advice. I received a verbal job offer from the head of the group, and subsequently HR called to go over the details. They asked me to redo a new application (they said it was a formality). Under this new job application I mistakenly put one of my extracurricular as a job (I didn’t get paid for this), and forgot to put my current TA job on there. My question is should I reach out to HR, and potentially fill out another application with the correct info, or leave as is, as it is a difference in semantics, and doesn’t really matter? Thank you for any help provided in this matter.

Nothing will happen. They will email you for additonal information if they need anything but nothing to worry about. I just got a new job and they asked me about an employment gap (was in HS/college) and never mentioned working for my dad's construction business (worked there summers). I then told them in an email and called my dad and asked if i worked there during that time- said yes and a day later everything cleared.
