The way the above statement is worded about the K3 "being replaced by the CR-1" is not exactly accurate.  The K3 was created by the LIFE Act of 2000 during a time that it took years from filing an I-1

you can not file a 130 (CR1) AND a i129f (K1). If you are married you file a CR1. If you are engaged and not married, you file a K1   you cant file both.

Wow... One year since you applied? You mean, you submitted i130 & i129f and you didn’t receive ANYTHING? 

Have you tried contacting USCIS?

This is so sad... 😢 I’m sorry this is happening to you. I would be worried. Hopefully, someone else can give you a good advise on here... In the meantime, I would continue to contact USCIS... Maybe seek legal advice etc.

There’s really nothing you can do but wait. I know it sucks but it’s not under your control. I’ve read here somewhere, where people try to contact local congress etc. So like I said, you need to wait but in the meantime:

1. Continue to contact USCIS

2. Seek legal advice (or research on what you can do)

3. Wait for some other people to respond to your concern here on VJ community.

4. Contact local congress office 

5. Wait..... ? 

 

I cannot think of anything else.. 😢

I wish you luck!!! ☘️☘️🙏

So do you have a case number for the I-130, or not? Just a FYI, most of the time USCIS purposely delays the I-129F until the I-130 catches up; thus the K-3 is basically obsolete. In fiscal year 2017 only 15 K-3 visas were issued worldwide: https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/Statistics/AnnualReports/FY2017AnnualReport/FY17AnnualReport-TableXVIB.pdf Very likely that it will be converted to IR-1/CR-1.

Technically, it's allowed per the K-3 instructions: https://www.uscis.gov/family/family-us-citizens/k-3k-4-nonimmigrant-visas But, we all know the K-3 is basically obsolete.
