Hi Tim,
Looking at "Table 2. Summary of subscription variables" of the page
you reference, payment_status is not included for messages with a
txn_type of subscr_ signup, subscr_ cancel, subscr_ modify, or
subscr_eot.
This matches the results I see in testing with PayPal Sandbox.
Neither subscr_signup or subscr_cancel include the payment_status.
Below are the parameters from two messages I have received (they
contain fake user info generated by PayPal Sandbox, so no security/
privacy concerns).
params from subscr_signup message:
btn_id -> List(1070963), test_ipn -> List(1), charset -> List
(windows-1252), address_country -> List(United States), item_name ->
