I-129F approved after all -- Don't want it anymore

[hhN400 3]

Received an email today from the VSC that our I-129F/K3 petition has finally been approved. Our IR-1 visa, however, is now so far along that we don't want to pursue this any more. In the normal course of things (we expect the IR-1 to be finished at the NVC within the next week or so), both IR-1 and K3 will end up at the Frankfurt Consulate almost at the same time. I'm not sure whether I should tell the NVC to stop the K3 or let it go to Frankfurt, where (so I understand), they'll set up an interview for the IR-1 anyway if they have both applications on their table concurrently. Does anybody have any experience one way or the other how to handle this?

You've got it right. In the event the K3 interview gets scheduled for a time when the CR1 case is on station, simply remind the Consulate your CR1 case is in their hands and they'll interview forr the CR1. Make sure you get the needed instructions for vaccinations. etc.
