    I submitted my documents on Friday morning at Wisma Putra. Here's some information to help others when undergoing this process. If the moderator or main OP can include this info at the first post, it would be helpful for future references.
    TIP
    Begin applying for the Certificate of Good Conduct before or immediately after submitting the K1 visa package. The process takes 1-2 months.
    NOTICE
    "Pleased be informed that applications for Certificate of Good Conduct should be made by online only, starting from 1st January 2011. Applications can be made via Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Website www.kln.gov.my under e-Consular
    IMPORTANT!

    You can no longer submit the printed forms. They will immediately return/reject your application.
    You must submit an online application via their website.
    Create an account using your passport (Foreigners / P.R.) / NRIC (Malaysians).
    Make a note that purpose of the application is for 'U.S. Immigration Visa'
    There is a high chance your e-application form will not be able to be printed (their system is faulty).
    It is ideal if you submitted your forms in person at Putrajaya.
    If you decide to post, ensure that you include a cover letter explaining what the documents are for : submission & the online transaction code).
    There is just one computer there for public use at Wisma Putra. You can do last minute application or check your status. The queue is long due to lengthly application process and users who are unfamiliar with computers.
    Go early. Bring your PASSPORT and NRIC. No passport, no application.

    PROCESS

    Line-up outside guardhouse to obtain security passes and a Green Exit Form (to be submitted after). Guards will take your NRIC.
    Go into the main building and line up outside the front desk. Here at 8.30, staff will check your forms and give you a number.
    Go into the seated waiting room.
    Submit documents at Counter 3.
    Wait 15-30 minutes.
    Counter 4 will call you and provide you with a receipt A4 size.
    Ensure you check your status online that it is currently "In Progress"
    Wait 1-2 months.

    Hang in there, ygr. Try to make the best of this time to say goodbye to the people, food and things around us. I've become a tourist in my residential country, going to visit places I've never been to, visit some favourite places, eat stuff that I'll quadruple the amount in the US, and giving away my possessions to some close friends. Plus, I've been going on Google Map's Streetview to get to know the area better. :-)

    Wow!
    This is like the thrid time in the last week or so I've posted this, but here I go again!
    Don't count on anything with immigration being quick. EVER!
    Just because it HAS been taking 3-4 months for SOME people to get through does not mean this trend with continue at all! It was a "5 month wait" when I started the process, and we're on the 8th month.
    If you're the person moving to the states, go through your clothes and start donating what you don't wear/want/need. (And depending on where you're moving, we could probably tell you how many of those wintery clothes you're REALLY going to need) Start packing things that you want to keep that have been in your closet for more than 1 year untouched...that way you won't miss it.
    Do yourself a favor for all of your well meaning friends and make an immigration mailing list. For everyone who wants to know about it, sit down and send out a weekly email or where you are in the process, so everyone knows how long it takes and they won't constantly ask.
    If you are the US Citizen, start cleaning and making room for your spouse. Clean out your closets, clean off some knick knack shelves, give your future husband/wife space in the home you'll share. Get some household projects knocked out of the way, or start an herb garden.
