Did you follow the steps in this Apple Support document?

Hold off on the last step......removing the phone from the list of devices using your Apple ID

This is a user to user only forum, which Apple, except for moderators doesn't participate. You have posted your personal email address in a public forum, which is not wise. I have asked the moderators to edit your email address out for your protection. NEVER post personal information in a public forum.


Apple doesn't get involved in lost or stolen devices. Assuming you have Find My enabled on the phone before it went missing, see what you can do to try to find it here --> Find your lost Apple device or AirTag with Find My - Apple Support


If find my was not enabled, the phone is not powered on or connected to a network, you'll have to look for it the old fashioned with your eyes way.
