US visa appointment without copy of previous visa extension?

I went to the US on an H2B visa in 2017. Before my season ended, I extended my visa for another 6 months to work for a different company. My employer who filed my visa extension, never gave me my extension approval notice (I-797A). I contacted my employer for a copy of that document, as I've applied for a new H2B visa and I need a copy of all previous visas and visa extensions for my visa appointment, which is in 2 weeks.

I have a friend who I worked with in the US, who's current colleague also apparently lost her I-797A of her extension a few years back. She also applied for a new H2B visa 2 years back without her lost I-797A and her visa was approved.

A few of my friends, who all went for their visas last year got asked for all their previous visas and I-797 of all their previous visa extensions. So my visa appointment is in 2 weeks and what do I do when the consulate officer asks me for my I-797 of my visa extension? And what's the chances that he will deny my visa because of the fact that I don't have that I-797?

Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
