Itu2019s a while since I went though this myself but the process doesnu2019t seem to have changed a lot in the intervening yearsAs you are US citizen you can file a petition to have your husband join you or accompany you if you are both outside the US.If you are in the USA and your husband is in the UK then you need to file from Iu2013130 with CIS, you can download the form along with the instructions and some other forms here - Petition for Alien Relative. You need to fill out and mail the form to a Chicago address with the appropriate supporting documents and fees.If you are both in the UK you should file the forms and documents and fees with the CIS London field office (details are here: - United Kingdom - USCIS London Field Office).Either way the rest of the process is described here - ConProcessing. What happens now is a lot of waiting - the process from filing to issuing an immigrant visa seems to take somewhere between nine months and year.If you are both in the USA now - if he is visiting for example - then you need to file form I-485, which is an application for adjustment of status when you send in the Iu2013130. There may still be quite a long wait before he is finally approved but he may be issued employment authorisation documents (EAD) while you are waiting, which will let him get a social security number and find work.From memory this process involved a trip to the local office about two months after filing for some preliminary processing and interview (which seemed simply to confirm that this was a genuine marriage and not one intended to get around immigration rules). After the interview I was issued the EAD and then about seven months later returned for a further slightly more detailed interview and the green card was issued after that trip. The interview doesn't need to be scary but is necessary - both officers that I dealt with were extremely professional and very pleasantNow my situation may not be fully representative, the fact of having lived with my wife in the UK for some years before coming to the US might have meant that the questioning about our marriage was less intrusive and intense than it might have been if we had only just got married, or if we had come from a community where there is perhaps a perceived history of sham marriages.
