Default What happens to wife's I-130 after I change my status from PR to Citizen

How much longer does it take after I become a U.S. Citizen. What are the steps I would have to follow? As of now, the I-130 Petition is approved and the application is in India waiting for a F2A category priority date. But once I upgrade my status to a Citizen, what happens next? What much longer would it take?

I posted a response in the other forum. It really isn't necessary to cross post your questions all over the place.

Once you become a US citizen you have to notify the consulate so they can "upgrade" your petition to a different category so it gets processed quicker!
Good Luck!
