[2022] Issue with Cross Save

Hello. I just started playing Fall guys. I set Xbox as my primary account when I hooked it to an epic games center account. Before I bought anything, I wanted to make sure the cross save worked and that I linked everything correctly. I opened my switch game and nothing seems to be carrying over. My level on Xbox is 5 right now, but Switch is showing what is basically a whole new character at level 1.

What did I do wrong? Also, xbox didn't ask me about my epic games account when I first opened the game; it did for my boyfriend though. It seems to be linked correctly. Help me, please.
