It depens on what you mean by converged.

Yes you calculation has converged to a correct states with the forces all less than the given tolerance you have set, so in that sense it is converged.

What you might want to check, if the converged results depends strongly on your choice of parameters, like the basis set, - try rerunning with a better basis set
and see if you only get small differences.
