H1B RFE asking to maintaining F1 status (asking for paychecks)

Hello,

I am an F1 student on OPT STEM which will expire in FEBRUARY 1st week. My current employer filed my H1B for which I have recevied a RFE asking for lot of documents. My employer said he will be
taking care of all the documents needed to reply. BUT in RFE it is mentioned I should be providing all the pay checks from my initial OPT date to H1B petition date. The problem is one of my
previous employer is not responding timely and I am not sure I will be able to get pay checks for the time I worked for him in timely manner. My Questions are

1.What are the chances of getting approval if I don't provide these pay checks?(Instead can I submitt my W2s and OFFER LETTERS)
2.Will this effect only change of status or my F1 STATUS too?
3.If they believ I haven't maintained F1 STATUS just because of this, what are the possible outcomes?
4.How safe is to reply to RFE without payhecks from one of my previous employer?
5.What are the alternative solutions for this?

Quick response will be really appreciated.
