In OP's case it probably would get his I-130 approved but they been sitting 11 months. Many people just assume it's a speedy way and that's not the case. Those that got the I-130 approved after filing the I-129F had been sitting quite some time. But I am seeing resent filers doing it and well sit they must. This is not a get in front of the line thing. Even though people post that "Oh wow I got approved faster filing the K3". Not mentioning they been waiting already 9,10,11 months.

Yes they have been siting quite sometime less than 8mont. Most of them that file in February, March, April and may 2019, have been approved from Nebraska centre after filing their i129,... They would have still be sitting and waiting like me of not that they file i129 to fasten their i130 up

My wife filed i130 in January 7 and it's been more than 11 month now we haven't heard from uscis now I'm thinking of filling i129 to speed it up being that has work for some Nebraska filer....on the other note I'm thinking of not filing i129 being that we can hear from uscis any moment from now..your opinion will be highly welcome

I did it and I think it helped, but there is no way of knowing officially. I did not effect me negatively or anyone else I have come in contact with, and there are no additional fees. It does not hurt to try, and please remember... every country is different and every case is different.

I've been noticing some of the latest approvals from Nebraska have been getting processed in just under a year.  If you look under processing times someone just posted that they got NOA1 1/02/2019, and just now got NOA2 12/06 .  So I hope you get yours soon.
