Sorry for any inconvenience, but the thing is that I have been living in Manhattan for 8 years already and I am coming to Israel next month. Thanks for your help.

The first sentence is a literal translation, but not quite the right meaning. It would be more correct to say: "Sorry for any inconvenience", or "Sorry to impose, but..." and then merge with the second sentence.

Libera's suggestion was brilliant, I would like to change the translation:

I apologize for the inconvenience, but the thing is that I have been living in Manhattan for already 8 years, and I am coming to Israel next month. Thanks for your help.

OK jairhaas, I'll edit that, but isn't that "already" misplaced?

I think it should read :
"Sorry for any inconvenience, but the thing is that I have been living in Manhattan for 8 years already...

What do you think?
