A K-1 cannot be delayed at the NVC stage.  That is one disadvantage to the K-1 route.  The only way, to my knowledge, is to delay the medical exam and scheduling an interview.  However, attempting to do that could cause the Consulate to allow the I-129f to expire.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

By delay do you mean by weeks? months? or years?

That just isn't possible.  I-129fs expire after 4 months.  On the other hand, a CR-1 case can be delayed ta NVC for years.

You can ask for an extension when the petition gets to the Consulate and your  first 4 months is about to expire.  The Consulate can extend in 4 mo increments up to one year but they are not obligated to.
