Probably 30 months or less since this category is advancing quickly. You can speed it up if you become a citizen.

That really depends on where she stay in line with the annual quota and other factors. It's really hard to say now without knowing more.

The US Department of State publishes a visa bulletin every month that explains how long the wait is for each category of immigrant visa. The November Bulletin states that F2A applicants with a priority date of Feb 15, 2009 are eligible to apply for an immigrant visa. This would indicate that if you filed an I-130 petition for your husband now, he would have to wait about 3 years to apply for an immigrant visa.
