no visa to usa from ESTAS to 1-130 (spouse/marriage visa) ?

Sorry for the complications in advance!! Unique situation :)

​

I have finance who is coming to visit me for 1st time, hopefully under the ESTAS (her country is approved for visa waiver req. less than 90 days https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/tourism-visit/visa-waiver-program.html

​

Technically since she is not on a tourist visa, or none at all could we arrange marriage at courthouse to get married and she leaves before 90 days and file for a spouse visa while she is here/after she returns to her country?

- This question highlights the scrutiny that those who come on a tourist visa and marry because should have no intention to marry. (Plus red flags that almost automatically deny green card for spouse if you get married/file spouse visa Adjustment of status before about 30 days, etc.)

Essentially, will she who comes on ESTAS and gets married then is filing a spouse visa have the same scrutiny as fiance who comes on a tourist (immigrant via I think) and gets married then files for spouse visa during the interviews?

​

Thanks!!

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...
