If you are married to a U.S. citizen, you are considered an immediate relative, which means there is no annual visa cap. If you are physically present in the United States and entered lawfully, you may be eligible to file for adjustment of status concurrently with the I-130. If you are outside the United States, the case proceeds through consular processing after I-130 approval. Processing times vary depending on USCIS backlogs and consulate scheduling, but immediate relatives generally move faster than preference categories.
