My spouse doesn't have naturalization certificate, and is unsure how to apply for my green card

Hello,

We are nearing my visa status end date and our lawyer has not been very helpful. So we are asking this here.

My spouse is applying for my green card but his forms asks about his certificate of naturalization.

He got citizenship as a child when his parents naturalized and became citizen. He has a valid US passport but doesn't have a certificate of naturalization. What's more, his parents lost their certificates after they became citizens more than a decade ago.

My questions are:

  1. Does my spouse need to wait for his parents to apply and replace their naturalization certificate before he could apply for his certificate?

  2. Do we need to wait for my spouse to get a certificate of naturalization before applying for my green card?

  3. Our lawyer wrote "Spouse has certificate of naturalization. Issue date/number is unknown" on Form I-130 and said "it's ok as long as he applies and gets the certificate before green card interview". Is that true?

  4. Which form should he use to apply for this certificate? N-600, N-400 or N-565? (He doesn't remember whether he ever had the certificate so we don't know whether we are apply for replacement or a new certificate.)

Thank you!

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. 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...
