What is the name of your state? Florida

Can a legal permanent resident file for his spouse or does he have to wait until he becomes a citizen?

An LPR can petition a spouse but it takes about 4-6 years before that spouse can apply for an immigrant visa or adjust status, if in the US, on the basis of that petition.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions or how I can be of further assistance to you in this matter.
