Thank you so much

We just both feel so stupid, we really didn't look this far ahead or even comprehend that it could even take more than 6 months! We were so oblivious to the whole process. What is the process of requesting an expedition, has anyone here done it themselves and could offer any advice, it would be very much appreciated?

Hi all, I have read and read until I can not read anymore, so I need your advice please. Quick recap, married my American husband in September 2023, I have been back and forwards to the states over the past 2 years, staying 6 months at a time. My husband brought us a house in 2021, while I was there I started renovations, decorating, ripping old bathrooms outs, nothing major. After we got married, a few months later we returned to the UK for our honeymoon and it was at this point that we decided that we would apply for my green card and that I would remain in the UK while this process took place. He left and before we knew it it was February. We were extremely naive about this whole process and honestly hadn't really looked into all that in entailed, he filed the I-130 in February. While I was living there I was obviously helping pay bills, now I am back in the Uk, I have my own bills, but without me helping towards the mortgage he now risks losing the house. This was supposed to be our forever home and I am devastated. We thought the process of the green card would take like 3-4 months, I know, please do not come at me, neither of us have been in this situation before so yes were were very, very blind to it all! Would the risk of losing the house be enough to expedite the process. My husband has a great job and earns enough to support me, but not if he has to cover the mortgage and bills all alone. (Not that I would ever expect him to keep me) I send what I can but living separately, obviously means twice the bills now. I m so worried and just want to be back there to support my husband but is this reason enough to expedite the case?
