How long does it take to get permanent residency after marrying a clincard holder?

I am married to a Japanese green card holder and am in the process of applying for permanent residency, it will be 2 years in March.
I have searched the internet, and now I am waiting for the notification of my speech and medical examination. I am waiting to hear back from anyone who is also applying, has taken permanent residence, or has recently given a speech, or any other information you can give me.
I know it is different for everyone, but I would like to know even approximately how long it will take.

Aoi-san

I think your partner is a citizen or will take citizenship because this waiting time is not worth it.

I have met many Japanese people in Hawaii and California who have won green cards and are living there.

They say the odds of winning are better than winning the lottery.

If your partner doesn't get citizenship, you might make better use of your time if you wait while applying for a green card.

At the moment, it takes about 8 years in this case.

If you go back and forth between Hawaii and Japan on ESTA, you will be at a disadvantage
You will have to wait in Japan.

It is best to let your husband get his citizenship while you still can.

I myself married a permanent resident more than 10 years ago,
following the same pattern as Aoi, and applied for a green card.
I went back and forth between Hawaii and Japan and got pregnant, but my lawyer told me to wait in Japan instead of entering the US.

After the birth, I could not come to Hawaii and my husband came to Japan to see me every 6 months for 4 years and it took me 6 years to get my green card.

I heard that some people who are married to Citizen now take more than 2 years to get a green card, so I think you should be prepared for 6 years.

I think they are trying
to see if they can keep their marriage going after 6+ years of long distance.
In fact, I think many couples have been givens.
Investor Visa would be the fastest way.

Over 10 years ago, I married a Japanese permanent resident in Hawaii and
applied for a green card through a Hawaii attorney.
During the application process, I visited Hawaii a couple of times with my husband on a tourist visa. 
I was not stopped at any point when I entered the country and I got my green card 3 years after I applied. 
Reading your posts, especially # 2's post and others, I now wonder ? if my actions were dangerous.
but that there are cases like this. I don't know what the current situation is, but I am surprised that they are trying to see if the marriage can continue. It could simply be that it's an American thing and the paperwork is slow. At the time I was there, I was told that some people take 10 years to get married, but that there are cases where it only took 3 years. Please be hopeful and survive your long distance marriage.

I am looking for a little time in the morning to use it for myself.
I would love to hear about any cheap ( or free ) yoga around Ala Moana Beach or Magic Island that starts at 7am.
I have found some in Waikiki, but I work in the Ala Moana area, so I am looking in that area.
We are complete beginners but would like to give it a try. Thank you in advance for your help.

And the moment Otani took the mound in the top of the 9th inning ! I was so excited !
And the game against my teammate, Trout !

I was so excited and moved. I haven't felt so excited and moved so much recently...

I was so encouraged by the Japanese team's effort this time because of all the gloomy news like Corona, price hikes and wars... ! Congratulations And thank you ! !

MLB's star players sign multi-year contracts with annual salaries ranging from several billion yen to several tens of billions of yen. To prevent injuries and poor adjustments, the MLB takes a more cautious stance than Japan in allowing its players to participate in the WBC, and they must also clear insurance requirements, making the hurdles to participation quite high. Kershaw ( and the Dodgers ), who had expressed interest in participating in this year's tournament as well, had to give up their call-up due to lack of insurance coverage.

Before Corona, there was a fair amount of active fellowship here, but perhaps because of the mask society in Japan, people are now too shy to go out in Hawaii, where mask-less is the rule.

Price hikes in Japanese food markets are not good ?.

The prices at markets that claim to offer "passionate prices" and the like are in an "all-you-can-eat" state. In Japan, people seem to be willing to raise prices even by a few percent, but Japanese foodstuffs at this market have doubled in price from a little while ago, or even increased by 100 percent, without hesitation. I guess they are trying to make up for the loss of revenue caused by the Corona disaster, but the fact that the number of shoppers has not decreased even at these prices suggests that sales are much higher than before the Corona disaster and revenue is increasing.
Even for locally manufactured and sold products, which should not be so expensive in terms of transportation costs and raw materials, the local Japanese and Japanese-Americans end up buying them no matter how expensive they are, so I feel that they are setting absurd prices in a state of so-called "hiked prices". ?
Of course, they are relatively modest in raising prices for necessities and prominent products because they would be exposed if they raise prices all at once, but even so, they raise prices many times in a short period of time.
When the store first opened after the acquisition, there were parts where I could see the business attitude of a Japanese company with the concept of cheap sales, but I wonder if they are changing their business attitude to one where they carry everything on a large scale, but the prices are high, but you buy it because you need it anyway ?. ? For those of us who eat mainly Japanese food, I was complaining about the business that makes me want to boycott them, which I cannot do even if I wanted to.

I am not a tidy person so maybe you weren't happy with me, but I think we were very good roommates. You were a good cook, and I really envied you for always having something delicious to eat. You were humble about your country cooking, but I really envied you because I didn't know anything about country cooking or home cooking. I don't even know the name of the side dish you made with greens that goes well with rice, and I regret that I didn't learn how to make it. We used to go to Musician's gatherings and the parties at Teresa's house were so much fun.
I admired your hula dancing on stage, and I invited Danny and Tim to join me in hula dancing lessons, but Danny always made us laugh and the lessons never went anywhere, so all three of us gave up.
I have many happy memories of hula dancing, and I would be happy if you could help me remember them.
