Is it possible for my husband to get moved to my duty station if we got married after we received PCS orders to different places?

Write up a DA 4187 for MACP with both your Standard Name Lines in the remarks and sign under your information, along with a copy of both of your orders, ERBs, and your marriage cert. Go straight to your training room or S-1. This is pretty important and should be priority. In my BN my CO and 1SG get lit up at command and staff if soldiers don’t have a complete MACP or EFMP done.

First enroll in Married Couples Army Program and go from there. Army can make this happen for you and in the same token say, 'So sorry, so sad, NO.' I suggest you both try as your chain of command could say NO and not take it any further for you, his take it all the way, or vice versa. You are very junior and at the mercy of junior NCOs that some won't make this a priority for them. It is what it is. Good luck.

If you haven't moved yet and you're not close to your PCS date your branch managers "may" work with each other. Otherwise you'll have to meet time on station requirements before moving again.
Unless you're in AIT. Then your branch managers will probably be extremely unsympathetic.

Damn tricky- some might thing 1 of you got married just to avoid the new station. As it is you will have to get your paperwork in, before time to start clearing. Even then there is NO guarantee- They say We Will Try!

I figured it would take a while, but I was told that we’d have to be at our duty stations for 24 months before someone could move, do you know if theres any truth to that?

Yes, if this your first duty station and you not enrolled in the Married Couples Army Program (MCAP) its likely you will have to stabilize before you can move.

You can apply for a Passionate Reassignment. Look at AR 614-200, 5-23. For that, you only have to have one year on station and you can apply at only 6 months on station to be eligible to move as soon as you have one year. I’m working on doing the same thing right now. However, there has to be a need for your MOS and rank at your spouse’s unit or vice versa. And you have to pay for your own move and the time it takes you to move will be deducted from your leave days. Good luck!!
