If spouse will interview in Canada and not return to India,  he should get the criminal report for the next step ASAP as this takes time

i need to say if his name is like your profile and its Patel there are so many Patel's here that he may have a name familiar with another and this can cause delays /hopefully not

A few mote months for the I-130 approval.

 

2-3 months for NVC submittals and DQ.

 

6 months or so to get scheduled for interview after DQ.

 

Summary:  a year longer, give or take a few months.
