In-App Purchases "Waiting for Verification" - App rejected. How to break the loop?

Hi,

I'm stuck in a loop with my app submission:

1. Created auto-renewable subscriptions in App Store Connect
2. Status: "Waiting for Verification"
3. App gets rejected: "in-app purchases don't display"
4. But they can't display because they're not approved yet

Question: Do I need to attach the subscriptions to my app version BEFORE submitting? If so, where?

I've done:

• Created subscription group with metadata
• Configured pricing and localizations
• Set up RevenueCat integration

What am I missing to get out of "Waiting for Verification"?

Thanks!
