Hello,

  I filed a K-1 petition on behalf of my then fiance back in 2020 and I received an email from the consulate that it was, "sent back to NVC for revocation, please contact USCIS for further instructions." I have contacted them multiple times and I am still wondering what to do before I proceed, as they didn't seem to have the answer I was looking for, neither have I received an official "NOIR.". We are now married and have decided to file a CR1 and would like to find out if we must have the K-1 visa withdrawn/cancelled before proceeding any further?

Thank you

Here is a good tutorial on how to proceed.  Since it appears your K1/I129F has been sent back to USCIS, I would send the letter there.

 

Good Luck!

I would file now, a long wait.

I would file the I-130 now along with a letter to officially withdraw the I-129F.  The K-1 process is now voided.

I was in the same situation,  I filed I129F for fiance in SEP 2021.  I married her overseas in OCT 2021.  Then in NOV 2021 filed I130,  sent a letter to cancel K1 processing to USCIS, attached that in I130 online.   Of-course I have n't heard anything back from USCIS on K1 yet,  either revoked or anything...
