Without a SSN for him, you will just get the form back.

When you claim someone on your taxes, like your children, you must put their social security number(s) on your return. If your husband is not a legal citizen, he will not have a social security number. Assuming your husband is over 18, you can only file "married filing jointly" or "married filing separately", you cannot "claim" him as a dependent the way you can your children.

If you are a US citizen or resident, you can file joint return as residents. Attach W-7 (ITIN application) with your tax return.
