Pushbrk is saying that for a USC, gaining an immigrant visa for their spouse generally takes a year or less. For an LPR, it can take several years. So yes, there is a HUGE advantage to filing the I-130 as a USC rather than an LPR. However, an LPR could file and then notify USCIS if they became a citizen, which would cause the petition to then move faster.
