I'm very confused by your answers. Our priority date is Feb 11th, 2022, so 9 days before yours. Yet you're saying that your case is not effected by the retrogression while ours is. Can you explain that? Is there something else that you did to not be effected that I'm missing?
Also, not that it makes a difference, but our DQ mail from NVC does not say anything about the visa bulletin or any possible wait time. It just says
"NVC will work with the U.S. Embassy/Consulate General in FRANKFURT, GER to schedule an interview appointment for you. Once we have confirmed an interview date, we will send a notice to you, your petitioner and attorney (if applicable)."
