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.

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...
