Good morning!

 

I just married my Russian husband in Mexico! We submitted I-129f in July 2020, no NOA2 yet. We are now no longer eligible for the k1 as we are married. We felt this was the best decision for us as a couple.

 

1. Do I need to send a letter to USCIS withdrawing my i-129f or is it automatically null due to us no longer being eligible? Or will applying for I-130 suffice? Just want to make it easy on the USCIS people.

2. Does my Mexico marriage cert need to be apostilled to send to USCIS? I have the translated Spanish to English version with certified translator info.

Found love, thought I wanted this path, two years later realized my partner was not worth all the stress 😁

Yes, this is a good idea.

I should note that the thread I linked was related to an engagement ending, and so is not like yours.  In your case, the I129F will eventually be denied even if you do not send a letter, but it is probably a good idea to send the letter anyway so folks at USCIS, etc. don't waste their time on it.  

 

Good Luck!

2.  No apostille required 

YMMV
