I filed my I-130 for my husband, and expect approval any day now, but I have no idea what to do next. I know I need to file a I-601 and a not from my doctor with it, but what do I file with that? I get the Immigrations processed confused and need someone to draw me a picture if anyone can. (my husband was deported and excluded for 10 years. The only crime he committed was illegal entry into the country).

If you can afford an immigration attorney, I think it would be wise to engage one. He needs a reputable one in his corner, arguing his case. Not only will they fill out the tedious, repetitive paperwork but they will make sure his prior record is properly disclosed without over-egging the pudding.
I used an attorney when I immigrated about five years ago. I do not regret the expense. I am still paying for it but, really, the lack of stress was priceless, in my view.
EDIT: I have no idea why anyone would wish to give a US Consular Officer (dognhorselover) a thumbs down. Perhaps the person who did so would care to explain what was wrong about the answer?

If he is overseas, he will be notified when the approved petition is current and arrives at the US embassy or consulate that will process his visa. He will be told what documents to gather; when he has them all, he will be scheduled for his interview appointment. If the interviewing consular officer finds him ineligible for the visa due to the deportation, that is the time to give the officer the completed I-601 with the doctor's letter and any other supporting documents, and pay the fee ($250 I think) for it. The officer will forward the waiver request to the nearest USCIS office with a cover memo either recommending or not recommending that the waiver be granted. Then you wait - probably for six months, since reviewing all the records, including sending for his file from the US, and writing the decision takes a lot of time and work.

after the petition is approved it will get sent to Juarez (if he is from mexico) and then they will schedule him an appointment where then he will have to get a physical, shot records, police reports from there. He will go to the interview and they will automatically deny him because of his unlawful presence. At that moment he can automatically file and appeal and then he will have to give them all of the evidence of the bonafide marriage, exp..pictures, bank accounts, property, children, and letters from friends. They will then give him an answer that same day or a couple days after that. (its the new thing, my lawyer told me about it) then if he is approved then he will get his visa. If not then he will have to stay there for 10 years. You will also have to get someone to sponsor him, this is so he will not be supported by our government. It would be easier if you got a lawyer because they know the process and will do everything for you.
hope this helps
