Congratulations.

K1/K2 visa holders are NOT required to pay the immigrant fee ($165) because K1/K2 are non-immigrant visas.

So,i shud not bother with the letter..i shud disregard the letter and continue with my preparations..i hope it wil not be an issue @ the POE..meanwhile my POE is chicago..just want to be clear about it

As stated, a K-1 is a nonimmigrant visa and so the immigrant visa fee isn't applicable to you.
