J-1 visa interview canceled...again

Hello everyone. I'm applying for a j-1 visa category that is exempt from the recent presidential proclamation/ban. I managed to schedule a regular visa interview appointment that was canceled by the embassy around 10 days before its date. I was then approved for an emergency appointment that was also canceled just a few days prior to its date due to the covid situation. Due to the repeated interview cancellation, I am already past the start date on my ds-2019 and soon this current ds-2019 would not even grant me entry into the US.

What are my options here?

Can I apply at an embassy at a different country as a third country national? where would I be able to get an appointment (soon)?

I have already e-mailed the US embassy in my country multiple times asking for an emergency appointment but to no avail. All I get is the same generic response saying visa processing/interviews have been suspended due to the covid situation. Thankfully my employer is flexible and has been understanding, but I am really not sure how to proceed at this point or what to expect...this opportunity is extremely important to me and I don't want to lose it over something like this... any advice or similar experiences would be appreciated.

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...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. 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 ...
