I wanted to check in vs I want to check in

Both sentences are correct, but there is a difference between them. 'I wanted to check in' is used when referring to a past desire or intention to check in, while 'I want to check in' is used to express a current desire or intention to check in. The choice between the two depends on the timeframe you are referring to.
