I think this is what you are looking for...that is if you haven't read this:

http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_2993.html

Important Notice: Effective February 1st, 2010, when both petitions have been approved by USCIS and sent to the NVC or when USCIS approves the I-130 before the I-129F, the availability of, as well as the need for, a nonimmigrant K-3 visa ends. If the NVC receives both an approved I-130 petition and an approved I-129F petition:

The nonimmigrant K-3 visa case will be administratively closed. The application process explained below will not be available to the foreign-citizen spouse and cannot be used.

The NVC will contact the U.S. citizen sponsor and foreign-citizen spouse, with instructions for processing the IR-1 (or CR-1) immigrant visa. For more information on the immigrant visa process, review the Immigrant Visa for a Spouse webpage.

Good luck

We filed last june 2010 and are just now getting an interview date for August 2011. Not saying yours will be as long as ours but it may be longer than 5 months. Good luck

No RFE, However we did have a local office interview. So if out of 14 months total minus the 2 months would still be approximately 1 year.

Whoa.....that was quite a long time to wait. I just noticed that you did go through the 129F route of K3.....
