As everyone knows, I canceled my petitions for a K3 visa for my husband. Now I have already started the paperwork to re file in a couple of months, but I have a question, since Im re-filing this time for a CR-1 visa, I have to submit a request for a wavier due to multiple petitions, as I said I filed a

I-130 then a I-129F for a K3 but since Im filing a new petition for the same person, why do I have to request a wavier for multiple petitions?

Or did I miss something again??

New life, new adventures, and a new attitude.

I do believe you missed something. The waiver you are thinking of applies to K visas. If you are applying for a CR1, it does not apply. Also, even if you go for a K3, you wouldn't need a waiver. A waiver is needed if you filed 2 or more I129Fs in the past or had an I129F approved in the past 2 years. I don't think either applies to you (you withdrew prior to approval), assuming you have filed no other I129Fs except the one you just withdrew. And again, if you are applying for a CR1, the whole thing is moot.

From I129F instructions

If you have filed two or more K-1 visa petitions at any time in the past or previously had a K-1 visa petition approved within two years prior to the filing of this petition, you must apply for a waiver. To request a waiver you must submit a written request with this petition accompanied by documentation of your claim to the waiver.
