No one does the K3 anymore because it's never faster than the CR-1/IR-1. It's considered obsolete.

Oh plenty of people do try to go for it, but generally it doesn't work out. Where is your local office?

Ok received the following on my 129F today

"On August 2, 2013, your I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E) was terminated because you acquired status or the benefit being sought through other means. No further action will be taken on this case. You will be notified of the decision by mail."

So everyone was right the I129F was thrown out so hope I130 is approved soon

ah - probably from USCIS, at this stage.

That's kind of a 'secretive missive' that the I-130 is approved, or is about to be approved.

Oh, awesome! Congratulations! That was one hell of a long wait!

I'm the beneficiary.

Don't have a timeline? Don't know how to get started with it? Do it for the statistics sake: VJ video guide

Filing for a USC spouse visa (IR-1/CR-1) and not sure what comes next? Check out the VJ IR-1/CR-1 guide

Want to know what's happening with your case? Here's the USCIS tracking page (get an account and see if the case's been 'touched'!). Don't get your hopes up though, some cases never even appear there despite being successfully processed.
