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”?

My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...

DS-260 Have you ever attended any educational institutions at a secondary level or above?

Ok so I’m not sure what to put down here, I have a high school diploma and currently attending college! So for the occupation part for a previous question I put down the school I go to and address, however I am uncertain what to put down here, I put my high school start and end date but do I also include the college? Because it says highest level of education COMPLETED but also in the drop down menu there is an option that says UNIVERSITY,NO DEGREE which if I do choose then I will have to fill out the school information and then a start date and an end date which I still do not know this is the only question I’m struggling will and have looked into it but no straightforward answer! I hope you guys can help submitted by /u/AlarmingUmpire3 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/immigration/comments/j2eni9/ds260_have_you_ever_attended_any_educational/
