unfortuneatly the K3 saves maybe a few months at most to visa, if you manage to get that far, but costs more than twice the IR1 and takes twice as long to green card. Honestly, the IR1 is worth waiting the extra few months for.

USCIS does not consider our convenience or wishes when sending cases to service centers for adjudication. It's all about workloads and resources. When we filed last year California was processing much faster than Nebraska and my husband was born in California. Deep down I secretly hoped the sight of his bright blue California birth certificate might prompt the employee at Phoenix lock box to send it to California but no such luck. Nebraska it was. All we could do was wait.
Take comfort knowing you are not alone in this waiting. Thousands are waiting to be reunited with their spouses. Was your husband living with you in Japan? At least you have those memories of good times to cherish - many of us don't have that luxury of being able to live together overseas prior to this process. Every day that goes by you're a day closer to the end. That's what I used to tell myself.

Petitions and applications that don't require an interview are sent to the service centers to adjudicate. It's based on managing workload using whatever magic formula USCIS has, not based on location (as there's no reason it needs to be closer to you...you will never go there).
K-3 is obsolete and almost never issued anymore. They turn into a CR-1 anyway.
Current USCIS policy is to adjudicate an I-129F for a spouse with the I-130.
Current NVC policy is that if an approved I-130 arrives before or at the same time as an approved I-129F, then the I-129F is administratively closed.
Using the 2 policies above creates a situation in which almost all K-3 processes are stopped at either USCIS (when the I-130 is approved, sometimes they deny the I-129F outright as "benefit obtained via another means") or NVC (via administratively closing it).
As noted above, if you sent an I-129F, it would also be sent NSC since it would be adjudicated with the corresponding I-130.
