You can still file suit for KHULA in court without going to Arbitration Council, but you had better to go there first for reconciliation purpose. Because in several cases (depend upon facts) court may refer you to Arbitration Council.
u must consult first ur family elders, then any lawyer.

If u need divorce on the basis of khula you have to file a suit in family court. if Rukhsati is not take place then there is no need for iddat , as u get decree from court u can get talaq certificate immediately.
