If all of the paperwork is done correctly and the supporting documentation is presently properly, it should take approximately 6 months to one year.

It takes normally about 3 to 4 months depending on where your husband resides.

If your husband is in the US in valid status, you can petition for him as soon as you are sworn in as a US citizen and the process will take about 5-7 months until he gets his permanent residence.

4-6 months depending on the location and complicity of the case.

It shouldn't take more than 9-10 months now from the moment the necessary forms are filed till the day he receives his green card (first one is conditional, for two years), if all goes well.

This will depend upon the State you are in. Once you become a USC and you file for your husband then, at least in the State of NJ, the green card case for your spouse will take about 90 days or so - absent any "bumps in the road".
