We've been sending many applications without the fee and having no issues.  Our case wont be rejected, that I know and I will be writing a full post on why once she completes the N-400 process.  Ive documented in previous postings where I have not sent in previous tax forms, left supporting documentation out, and at each phase along the way we are approved with nobody asking questions, either at the I-485 interview as well as the K1 interview at the Embassy.  There have been zero questions in 3 years.  Once her N-400 is approved I will provide a whole case summary.  I have received more questions during my renouncing of US citizenship then she has received during her US immigration process. 

All the best to you with that approach and I don’t doubt that it can work, but I would advocate playing the percentages and posit that when it comes to all of the people who might read this thread and act on it over the long term, they are better off following the instructions as written regarding fees, required evidence, etc.
