Suppose a GC holder submitted an I-130 for his wife in the second family preference category, the I-130 got approved and the GC holder subsequently got naturalized and became a U.S. citizen.

Can this approved I-130 then be used by this naturalized citizen to apply for I-485 for his wife immediately, as if I-130 was filed in the immediate relative of a USC category?
Or does a new I-130 have to be submitted at that point?
 
When you file the I-485 and all the necesary forms and evidence that goes along with it, include a copy of the I-130 approval letter and a copy of the naturlization certificate.
