New baby BEFORE i-130 approval

[ml82]

So the thing is this, I applied for my wife an i130 under F2A category which got transferred to CSC;
the thing is - their processing times are ridiculously long (19-24 months), meanwhile the category has become current!
now, there’s a new baby on the way but I am thinking it would be born BEFORE the approval of the i130 because of these long processing times. If the i130 was approved and we where waiting for the cuttoff date - the child would be eligible for a derivative visa, but I have found nothing on this situation.
I am guessing the derivative visa law didn’t consider such a scenario in which processing times would be so long.
Any help would be appreciated.

As long as the child is born before your wife enters the US on her immigrant visa, he/she qualifies as your wife's derivative beneficiary, regardless of whether the child is born before or after I-130 filing or I-130 approval or issuance of your wife's immigrant visa.
