H1 to F1 issue

Hi Guys,

I was on H1 and I filed my F1 case in the month of september'02. After 2 months I got a RFE asking me to submit all the financial documents, property documents, financial support and pay stubs for september and Oct'02. I was puzzled by the last request. Because. I started my college in Sep'02 and why the hell these guys are asking for those 2 months. After alot of thinking, I have noticed that, b'coz my college put and old I-539 form intially and it came back has to re-submit it in october with the new form. So, INS thought that I have started in October'02.

So, I got all my documents with the pay stubs untill May'02 only. I couldn't produce the other paychecks until Aug'02. Now I got a denial Notice on Apr'08 stating that I was out status before I filed for this change of status. And also says that I can reopen the case if I have proper supporting documents.

My questions are:

1) Will I be still in H-1 status or out of status.
2) Can I go ahead and put the missing paystubs and refile it and what are my chances.

I know this is a very big and confusing story..but your opinions will be very helpful.

Thanks
