yo spouse can join u using other visa types like visitors visa or students visa as an immediate solution. But to benefit from yo status will take a while which is a permanent solution. U will petition under their normal system which takes many years for the number to be current. What i know is that it takes 5 years to become a citizen after getting the gc. Yo spouse can benefit from yo status then. U need to live in the us for 3 yrs without getting out either in the first 3yrs of the 5yrs or the last 3yrs of the 5yrs to qualify for citizenship.

It will take 5 yrs. So brother you may have to wait for 5 yrs to get her there with a Fiancée Visa. Or try other means of getting her in the US. Getting just a greencard will not allow you to bring your spouse/fiancée to US only US Citizens are able to do so.
BUT If your Fiancée is in the US unlawfully while you get married and file the immigrant petition for her, in most cases she will not be able to apply for a marriage greencard while in the US. In this situation she will have to pursue an immigrant visa at a US consulate overseas. Keep in mind that foreign citizens that accrue 180 days or more of unlawful presence in the US are generally prohibited from returning to the US for 3 to 10 years upon departure regardless of being married to a US citizen.

So you might get her in the US as a student that is the easiest way if you cant wait that long.

ok. first of all permanent resident CAN file a petition for his/her spouse. the only problem is it will take a long longer than in case of citizen (approximately 2/3 years).

second of all if your spouse would be unlawfully present in us then you would have to wait until you become a citizen and only then adjust her status.
 
Dear MaKiki, Ash 2013 and Dziecka

Thanks a lot for your valuable information, i was convinced with the idea that once you have been a GC holder you will be eligible to petition your fiance. so this information was completely wrong!

thanks again you to let me know early! God bless u all

hmmm...the probability of the spouse being granted a visa(tourist/student) r slim since it is assumed that there's already immigrant intent due to the other spouse being state-side.

At least 2 years as LPR(F2A).....refer to the visa bulletins.
ASAP(depending) as USC.
