Got a case received for 129F on November 20th 2018.  and it still hasn't been approved.  When is a good time to start calling them to see whats going on?

Way too early; less than 50 days have passed. Takes around 300 days: https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/stats.php?cfl= And can't complain until after ~8 months: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

Keep in mind that the whole process can take up to a year.

You probably won't hear anything back from USCIS until May or June.

Really??  You've got awhile to go!  Ours was 185 days from NOA1, and that was quick.

2 months?!? People wish it would be that fast.

K1 can take up to a year. Give it another two or three months before it gets approved. Keep in mind that you can get an RFE if documents are missing.
