I-539 Visa Extension Still Not Approved, Now Past the Requested Extension Date

My fiance's B-2 visa had expired 6 months ago and she had applied for I-539. On the application she ended up putting the requested extension date for 6 months (August 9th) as they had asked for a reasonable extension period. It is now August 17th and the extension is still pending. I've heard that if they approve an I-539 after the requested date, the extension period is still going to end on the requested date on the application (Aug 9th). Which means she'll suddenly be without status once the extension is approved.

I'm a bit frustrated as the extension approval process takes so long and we are left with no visibility on how much longer she can actually stay here for.

1) If the I-539 is approved after the requested date (August 9th), will USCIS automatically grant a later date for the extension?

2) Is there a way to request to change the extension date while it is still pending?

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...
