Filing taxes while waiting for SSN and Interview

I am a U.S. Citizen and my husband is from Colombia. He is in the middle of the green card process, and we have some questions regarding our taxes:

-We were told we could request an extension and not have to file taxes until October. The USCIS has notified us that, as of 3/16, they are ready to schedule an interview. Is it possible for our interview to occur before we file? Would it be better to file before the interview? Also, would filing separately be a problem?

-Since the wait for an ITIN could be a couple months or more, is it possible for him to receive his SSN before his ITIN? If so, should he apply for an ITIN, or would it be better to ask for an extension and wait to file once he has his SSN?

-The tax preparers that we've spoken with aren't certified acceptance agents and would have to send his passport to the IRS. How risky would it be for him to be without his passport for a couple of months? Would using a CAA be the safest option?

Our lawyer will not call us back and we really need to get the ball rolling with our taxes. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!!

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 ...
