Will my itinerary work for working around the Schengen ban?

I live and work in the US on a non-immigrant work visa that doesn’t expire until mid 2022.

My wife is a German citizen living in Germany and has just been issued an F1 visa.

I plan to visit Germany later this month to help her pack and move her to the US. We’re aware that F1 visa holders can fly directly from the Schengen zone into the US.

However, I cannot. So we’re planning to spend two weeks in Turkey and then travel directly to the US from there. The following is our planned itinerary:

Leave Munich at 10:30am on 11 Sep and arrive in Turkey two hours later. Leave Istanbul and arrive in San Francisco at 4:35pm on 25 Sep

The actual gap between the two timestamps (adjusting for timezones) is 14 days, 15 hours and change.

Is this itinerary valid to be considered as “spending the 14 days prior to entry in a non Schengen country”?

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
