It depends. How did he come to USA and when? Did he come on a visa or illegally (what visa)? Did he ever travel abroad after his first arrival in USA? etc etc.

Depending on his eligibility, he may or may not be eligible to apply for a green card while in USA.

In any case, if you are a US citizen, you can file a petition for him. There is no waiting time. The problem is whether he will be able to become legal (become a permanent resident) or not.

However, before you file anything with the USCIS, you should consult a knowledgeable immigration attorney and see what your husband is eligible for.
