I just got fired after giving my notice. Will this show up on background check?

I am still in shock from what just happened. I gave my notice late last week and my last day was supposed to be the 24th. I got pulled into the office today and was told that I was terminated. My background check was still in process at the new employer. I am freaking out now since this could royally screw me over if something falls through.

No, there is no official record of when people get fired. And you didn’t actually get fired. They just didn’t let you work out your two weeks. This is something that commonly happens. It’s nothing to worry about.

What was the reason they fired you for

This is common now. Some employers view people that give notice as a liability. They didn't really fire you they just moved up your quit date. Next time wait until everything is ready at your new job and then give notice.
