Moving to the USA from the UK - Confusion

Hey everyone - my name is Sara, and I'm an american that has lived in the UK for the last eight years. I'm also a dual citizen now. Currently we are applying for my husband to be able to move over to the USA - we'd like to move as soon as possible, but are rather worried that immigration is going to take quite awhile. Our I-130 has been approved, so now we are at the stage of gathering all the paperwork together (police check, vaccines, medical, etc.) and we're wondering if there was anyone around that has gone through the same experience? The US embassy doesn't seem to be very helpful - and ni fact we wasted an entire five weeks waiting to hear from them because they told us the wrong thing. Then we waited another week because they told us something else, and then my husband phoned up and finally found out that we were meant to receive an info pack in January, which we never received, and no, they would not send it out to us again, though they did tell us which forms we had to fill out. We've filled out the first one and send that in, and we are waiting to hear about the medical that my husband is supposed to go too.

Basically *grin* cause i know I'm boring everyone, is there anyone aroudn that has gone through the same experience? What happens next? and as we'd like to move to the USA as soon as possible, would it be a good idea to try for a K3/4 (I always forget it its 3 or4) visa? I asked the embassy guy that and he said that those applications were taking as long as the I-130! but then he also told me misinformation about something else, so I'm not sure whether to believe him.

anyway, any and all information is appreciated, thanks!
