Description

I'm trying to change the proyection of points in the US from WGS 84 to US Atlas (EPSG: 2163), to calculate distances.
In order to do that, I opened the csv with the points and then save it writing a new vector in the required proyection. The issue is that I loose most of the points (all in Nebraska for example) on the new shapefile.

Here I add part of the csv data and the new shapefile.

I'm trying to change the projection of points in the US from WGS 84 to US Atlas (EPSG: 2163), to calculate distances.
In order to do that, I opened the csv with the points and then save it writing a new vector in the required projection. The issue is that I loose most of the points (all in Nebraska for example) on the new shapefile.

When trying to reproject it using the processing toolbox it crashes.

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/7043 fixes the described crash and missing features issue, but the underlying cause is a bad row in your CSV:
