NVC stage vs 212e requirement

[NNN44 0]

Im subject to the 212e requirement J1 visa. I finished my program and returned home to fulfill the requirement. By now I finished 15 months ( 9 months to go ). During this t month My I-130 got approved and my pd is August 2024. 
 

im concerned about the NVC stage; as im still in the process of fulfilling the 2 years requirement. Im confused about this part, I saw a lot of cases mentioning that it’s at the interview stage at the consulate where you should prove completion of the 212e requirement. 
 

please any insights, information or advice ?

Yes, by staying in home country for 2 years you'll prove satisfaction of 212e requirement.

My main question is when does the 212e gets brought up , during the nvc processing or later on during the interview stage ?

At the consular interview.  You can slow down the case at NVC if it appears it will be ready to send to interview before you meet the 212e requirement.

If you filed in August, it is very likely you will have completed the required two years by the NVC stage anyway, but the requirement must be fulfilled before the visa is issued, not some other earlier time.
