You need to clarify what you mean by "lacks two more years".  If you came legally and married a US citizen, you can apply for adjustment of status to that of permanent resident.  If your husband is currently incarcerated, it may be difficult proving you didn't get married to him just to get a green card.  I recommend you hire a lawyer to help you apply.
