Best Answer

Generally, spouses of U.S. citizens are eligible for a green card (immigrant visa) number immediately. First, the U.S. citizen usually files Form I-130 with the USCIS, and once the I-130 petition is approved, you pay a visa bill with the National Visa Center (NVC), which collects certain documents and forwards those to the U.S. Embassy in the home country of the foreign national spouse. The U.S. government does not publish processing times for these processes, but it oftentimes takes around 6 months to 1 year for all of this to be completed. It's best to consult a licensed U.S. Immigration attorney to determine the right options for each particular person's situation.
