For that scrolling behavior you need collapse or expand CollapsingToolbarLayout no need to scroll your the NestedScrollView

Here is the sample code for that

Try this Make some below changes in your Layout

Answer 2

Scrolls (scrollBy()/scrollTo()/smoothScrollTo()/smoothScrollBy()) needs to be called from UI thread.

In Kotlin, you can use

Handler().post {
    nsv_form.scrollBy(0, 300)
}
