NIE denied - Experience with consulate processing times?

This is kind of a specific question and I will quickly give some backstory.

I applied for a J1 visa at the consulate in Frankfurt for a 3-month research project in Denver. The officer then denied my NIE since I could not prove I will receive credits from my home university for the stay. He gave me a form and said if I sent the missing documents via mail I should still be able to get my visa. I have sent in the missing documents on the same day, which was two days ago but did not receive a reply yet. Now my question is, since the program starts soon on Aug 17, is there any chance that I will receive my visa in time? Does anyone have previous experience with how long it takes to get a reply from the consulate? (Preferably in Germany, I don't know if it is comparable to other countries)

The consulate website states they will ignore any such questions which is why I don't ask them directly.

If there is no chance of me receiving a visa in time I have to get to Croatia or Mexico as soon as possible and enter as a tourist.

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/

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 ...
