Is it possible for my [UK] husband to apply for a green card at this time? Is it worth it?

I'm a US citizen meant to be immigrating to the UK. I have a pending spousal visa that was paused due to the processing centers in New York closing. We have no idea when this is going to start up again.

There needs to be some way, for us and for others in our situation, to find a way to be together... at some point this year.

Would it be at all worth it to apply for a green card for my husband right now? Is it possible even if I have a pending visa for the UK? Even if something could come through in 3 to 5 months at least there would be some level of expectation that we could arrange to be together through this rather than wondering, every day, for maybe even a year, if or when visa offices will open. Again, this isn't just for me, I'm asking this for the sake of anyone in a similar situation who doesn't have any way to get to their family or spouse right now.

Is there any type of permit that my husband could begin the application for now, even shorter-term but longer than the 90-day esta, that would be completed in under a year?

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
