Based on current quota numbers, 10-20 years. Of course, there may be other ways to come here, other than based on your family relationship with them.

Although you did not provide these details, I presume that you are a U.S. Citizen and that your boyfriend entered the U.S. lawfully and with inspection, but then overstayed his visa. Generally, a couple can marry at any age that is lawful in the jurisdiction (such as the State of Georgia) in which they live, and the USCIS will recognize the validity of that marriage. Upon marriage to a U.S. citizen, the couple can petition for the foreign national spouse to become a Lawful Permanent Resident (to get a "Green Card"). After the foreign national spouse has been a Permanent Resident for three years, he may file an application to become a naturalized U.S. citizen. If the foreign national spouse did not enter the U.S. lawfully and with inspection, then many other details will need to be examined to determine eligibility - in addition to the other issues that relate to anyone who wishes to apply to adjust status to become a Permanent Resident. There is no substitute for engaging an attorney to carefully review all the relevant facts and circumstances in order to be able to provide advice about eligibilities, options and strategies.

How long it will take my husband to get a status for job?

You can file an I-130 petition for your spouse. Depending upon what country he is from, he will then need to wait a few years to apply for a green card. You really need to determine whether he is eligible to file in the US or only through consular processing. In the latter, he will probably trigger a ten year reentry bar and an extreme hardship waiver will be needed to waive that bar. Please have a full consult with a competent immigration attorney in your area to fully vet this case before you do anything!
