More details to this question:
I am a U.S. citizen and want to petition my husband for U.S. permanent residency. We have two children together and he is the family's support. He has entered the U.S. illegally twice, and was caught crossing the border both times. I understand that he can file a I-601 waiver but does the I-212 apply to his case also or what other options does he have?

He may not have to file an I-212, but you need to consult with an immigration lawyer to provide all of the details.
