You go down to the nearest United States Immigtation office and get the proper form from its representative for a non-resident spouse to come to this country to reside with a resident United States citizen in this country. You will need copies of both birth certificates, driver's licenses, and the marriage certificate. I suggest that you consult with an immigration attorney to assist in the process.

You don't purchase applications. If your husband is married to you and this is a legitimate marriage, your husband would need an application through immigratoin to become a green card holder and then a U.S. Citizen through marriage. Green card holders married to U.S. Citizens must at the very least be residing in the United States for I believe five years to be eligible for naturalization. A Green Card application is probably the best resource, as an immefitate family member (spouse) of a U.S. Citizen. You should speak with the immigration office closest to you or hire an immigration attorney to help you with this process.
