It can takes years however you need to look at the visa bulletin for an estimate.

This depends on your status. See a lawyer to discuss a K-1 visa.

It depends on a lot of factors, but I'd be confidant to say that a few years are possible.

Depends if visa # is available, affidavit of support is completed to the USCIS satisfaction. And where the spouse is coming from. Generally about 2 years.

About 2-3 years under the current processing times. Although if the green card holder spouse is almost ready for naturalization, then it could be a bit faster.

The answer depends on where your spouse is from, but it usually takes at least 3-4 years before a visa number will become available.
