So basically the process with the I-601A looks like this:
File I-130
Wait for approval
Wait for priority date to become current
Pay the DS-260 filing fee
File I-601A
Wait for approval
File DS-260
Give them whatever documentation they want
Leave, go attend your consular appoint, get your immigrant visa, return to US

I briefly consulted a local immigrate organization, they said the I-601A process could take up to 7 years and will be voided if i get married. Is this true though? 7 years is a long time but if there is no other way, i have to do it regardless
