I play via GeforceNow and I don't see friends tab in Xbox bar, so I can't invite or receive...

I am sorry to hear that.

Have you tried to use the in-game social list to invite your friends?

There's a current bug that seems to be going around sending and receiving game and party invites through Xbox. All of my friends play on an Xbox One. About a day ago I tried inviting a friend and they weren't receiving the invite notification on their Xbox but were receiving it on their phone. We have tried restarting our WiFi and our Xbox but nothing seems to work except joining their open party with online mode on. I don't know if this is a known bug or is new and unknown.

If anyone has any solutions that'll be great.

Yes i have the same problem i see i do get invites on my phone but not appearing on my xbox. I can only invite people i dont see friend rewuests but i see them in my notifications tab. But invites cant be found now i know others have the same problem

Not seeing other people in convoys is an issue the game has currently so that would be on the game's end

As to Game Bar and invites: Difficult to say...Invites have been glitchy this past week...people I race with can send invites but the people don't receive them. Could be you Game Bar, could be Xbox Live

I think I also have the same problem, I go to my Xbox app and I have to log in. I log in, then I go to the friend's tab and it's empty. I go to chat and everyone who is a friend now shows up as an unknown user. I try to find friends using the search bar and I can't find them at all. When I go play a game I can send invites and see if there on through the game. The same problem is also on my Xbox phone app.

This issue only arose after making changes to her Microsoft account. Before that, she had no problems. It would appear that this stems from me changing her permisions on the Xbox, but since I removed those, I don’t understand why she still cant see her
friends. If she goes into her world, and invites a friend, she can see who is online and send an invite. But she can’t see them in the friends tab on the main menu, and I dont know that they receive the invitations when she sends them.
