My wife is a permanent resident with a green card in USA and we applied for my spouse visa last year and its almost a year when we submitted the form I-130 and received the receipt for that and nothing after that.On the last visit my wife got pregnant and now she is back in USA. Is there anyway I can get my visa process faster and i can be with her as she needs me.Reply would be awaited.Thanks

since your wife is only a LPR and not a USC the visa for you will take much longer last I heard they were working on petition from 2016 for LPR

 

but her being pregnant isn't a cause to expedite the case, sorry :(

Should have planned better and not get pregnant yet. 

 

It will not give you your visa any faster.

Congrats!

 

Unfortunately, pregnancy is not a reason for expedite. Nothing you can do to make the process go faster.

Pregnancy is not a reason in itself to expedite.

 

Just for reference, even if the I-130 was approved today, the process won't go faster because she needs to wait for the Priority Date (PD) to become current since she's an LPR. It's not possible to make the PD become current sooner...so even if there was a reason to expedite, the I-130 would just sit there waiting. Currently, it is taking about 24 months (from I-130 filing) for the PD to become current for the F2A category (spouse or child of an LPR).
