Instead of setting the request headers to your express route, Can you try setting it to express instance itself like this,

var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var Assessment = require('../app/models/assessment');

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
  res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
  res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
  next();
});

app.post('/api/status', function (req, res, next) {
    // your code goes here
});

module.exports = app;

Hope this helps!
