Need advice on whether to submit this letter or change it up

[LSnBigBear 61]

This is my second K1 process as my first did not work out so I stopped the process. The problem was in 2008 that due to her being so close to her interview date that the USCIS told me via phone when I called them to cancel that "her interview date was to close so I was just to inform her not to attend the interview" which I emailed her and told her. Well I later found out she went... I know from the I129 form that they ask if I have done this process before.. I want feedback as I drafted this below letter explaining my last 4 years and what transpired. I am not embarrassed to share this with you. I will just remove the names as I copy and paste....And no I never received confirmation #'s from USCIS or ICE of my call. I was very upset about the break up and did not think clearly then.....Thnaks for any feedback whether I should disclose this up front or wait.... Thanks again and be brutal if you need. I would rather here it here then get caught up in RFE's later on during the process.....

USCIS Letter--Good day, February 3, 2012

I am writing this cover letter to explain my former K1 Process from 2007-2008.

I was engaged to "Name" from Cebu City Philippines and started the K1 process July 2007 after my return from an Ex Pat assignment in Cebu Philippines. I was busy with my new job so I hired an Attorney to handle the process for me.

We were 80-90% through our process when she and I started not getting along more and more. I requested to cancel or postpone the process through a phone call to USCIS and was told we were too close to her interview date and she should just “not go” to the interview. I then contacted her and told her not to attend the interview as I was cancelling due to our relationship not being good. This was late February of 2008.

A few months after our break up I heard she was in the USA without me knowing. When I found out she was in USA I called ICE to report her. They explained she must’ve arrived on the K1 and as long as she leaves before her 90 days were up then she is not illegal and they could not do anything. The nice gentleman at ICE explained to me that she was not my issue as if I did not marry her then she needed to return. I did not like this answer he gave me as I was her sponsor. He told me until I know 100% for certain she is over-stayed then they cannot do anything as at this time she is not illegal as I am only assuming she is in USA. This made sense but I did not like.

I then emailed her explaining all of this to her and explained if she was here then she needed to go back. I never heard from her again so I do not know what transpired. I did hear rumors when I moved back to Cebu June 2010 to August 2011 that she is married to an American living in USA and has a child. I cannot vouch this a true statement as I do not know her whereabouts and her family in Cebu lived in a not so nice area so I was not going there to confirm the rumor as I really did not care as long as I was not accountable for her past, present or future actions.

Currently I have waited much longer since I left the Philippines August 2011 to start the K1 process. I wanted to make sure "name", my fiancée and I could sustain our relationship for one year regardless of where we are geographically. I am so very happy to report that our relationship is excellent. She works, she is educated and she is wonderful to me and for me.

I am now working full time and ready to marry my friend and fiancée "Name".

I just want to explain A-Z what transpired as I am honest and do not want delays.

I thank you for reading all of this statement.

Sincerely

There is probably a better forum for this than off topic, Maybe a MOD will move it for you. I don't know what else you could tell them. Definitely attach your letter as an addendum to which ever form

is asking if you have petitioned anyone before. That's what I did to explain about my Ex that I brought over like 20 years ago. They never asked any follow questions about my ex or her kids.

I would not include the above sentences since you will be including a letter of intent to marry separately. Your ability to support her is handled by affadavit of support later.

Telling them that you are honest probably won't convince them and they already know you don't want delays.

On the bright side it looks like you dodged a bullet with the first one. She was way to slick.

Ok I looked, It is line #11 on the 129 form. I would head it this way.

ADDENDUM FORM 129F LINE#11

sign and date it and attach it behind your form 129f
