British husband’s ESTA was denied- please help!

I’m a US citizen, and my husband is a UK citizen. I have a UK residence visa, but due to a myriad of reasons we decided to settle in the US. We’re in the process of applying for his green card now (awaiting an NVC appt). I’m working full-time here, and he’s working full-time in the UK

Anyway, this damn pandemic has thrown a wrench in things. The last time my husband was able to come was last summer, when our baby was born. He was able to stay for a few weeks, then had to go back for work

Finally, his work calmed down enough for him to come in mid-February. He booked the plane tickets, his PCR test, we got super excited...and then his ESTA was denied. No clue why, and no clarity on how to move forward. He tried calling the US Embassy in London, but couldn’t get through to a live agent. I’m assuming he needs to get a visa, but the visa appointments are so limited.

Does it matter he’s excluded from the Presidential proclamation (since he’s an immediate family member of a US citizen)?

Can he still come? What can we do?

Thank you so much in advance!

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/
