Advice for a US citizen trying to get my husband back in the US

If anyone can offer advice on getting my Husband back in the country it would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the senario.
We got married in the US but were too broke to file for papers to get his green card at the time.
He was told by Department of homeland security not to worry his travel visa was going to run out as it would be renewed when we returned from Hawaii. He was deported. After contacting a consulate he was told to get a new travel visa which he did, he was denied entry upon returning being told he had the wrong kind of visa twice! Twice he went back to the consulate and they tell him one thing and Department of homeland security tells him another when he gets here. His I-130 has been filed but I dont know if it will get approved after all that has happened. Can anyone help??

What exactly was the type of visa he attempted to use each time? B1/B2?

If it was a B1/B2 tourist visa, that would explain why he got refused entry, because of the immigrant intent issue.

Yes I think they told him to get a B1/B2 tourist visa.
Will we have any problems asking for an immigration Visa now?

He shouldnt have a problem getting the immigrant visa, unless there are other issues in his immigration history like long overstays. But he will have to wait outside the US for the I-130 to get approved. How long ago was the I-130 filed? Were you already a US citizen when it was filed?

I hope you specified a consulate on the I-130, instead of adjustment of status.
