It is not Joining. If cannot identify this issue I can upload a video. File is uploaded

I see, if you  zoom in a lot and view in outline mode, you will see that the anchor points are almost on top of each other.

Joining them will create another minimal path segment. 

If you add another step: Object > Path > Average before joining, it should work.

Select that anchor point with the direct selection tool and move it, does it display another anchor point below it?

Yes you are correct. There are 2 anchor points one over other. How to delete one anchor point? All get deleted by delete key. When I use the pen tool to delete, it changes the shape of the outline.

You can direct select the top anchor point.

Move it a visible amount (I would use Shift + Right Arrow key).

Direct select and Delete the path between the anchor points.

Move the point back (Shift + Left Arrow key).

Select both points an use Join (Object > Path > Join).
