Im afraid it is the case with truck driving etc.
These jobs go to men from places such as Pakistan and India.
Their wages are very low, Im afraid, not enough for your partner to live on (never seen a driver here that is not from the Indian sub-continent)

Also Elphaba is correct in saying that as a woman, you must have a certain job (teacher, doctor etc) or earn a certain wage to be able to sponsor your husband...and as you arent married, Im afraid, he would have to organise residency etc seperately, through an employer.
Sorry to be so negative.
