F1 visa denial with full scholarship

I am international first year student from post Soviet Union country. I got into state university with full scholarship ( full,tuition room and board, insurance and other fee).I graduated high-school 2 years ago and I had two gap years.(last gap year wasn’t planned because of covid I had to).Today I had interview and I got rejected under 214(b).I have perfect academic records.

I try to explain how interview went:

Officer:Hi how are you how r u doin?

Me:Good morning,thanks i am good

Officer looking at my i-20:So I see you got scholarship.

Me:Yes

Officer:So where is this scholarship coming from?

Me confusedly: telling about scholarship

Officer: I see but where is this coming from?

Me: i say my university name

Officer:Ok

Officer: What high-school did you graduate

Me:I say my school name

Officer:When did u graduate?

Me: 2019 2 years ago

Officer: What did u do during these two years?

Me: i decided to take a gap year

Officer pretend he is not understanding what I am saying: what?

Me:Gap year

Officer: Yea gap year ok

Me trying to explain why i took second gap year

Officer didn’t listen to and: were you employed during these years

Me: No I wasn’t

Officer:wait a minute/ goes back and starts talking about something with someone in the background( I am not sure he was talking about me, maybe he was talking about his own stuff)

Officer: So do u study here in your country as well?

Me: No I am not

Officer: Sorry your visa isn’t approved continue your education here

So what do you think could go wrong?What do you suggest me to do? He didn’t ask any other docs other than i-20 and passport.Also I had rejection from Poland embassy 2 years ago and its stamp was in my passport and officer saw that.Plus that day literally no one got a visa.Please help. Any advice will appreciated.Thanks

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

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/
