What is the difference between the two verbs in these situations? Are there any nuances? In what cases "check in with" used and in what ones "check with"?


"Check with" is verifying or consultating something/someone, before doing/saying something.

"Check in with" is more of a nicety; letting someone know that you are (aware that they are) still there. Or, in your example, following up on something.
