With an F-2 visa you cannot obtain work authorization. Your husband, however, can apply for off-campus employment based on severe economic hardship if he has been in F-1 status for one full academic year.
His application should include documents that show that he has encountered "severe economic hardship caused by unforeseen circumstances beyond [his] control.” Such documentation should include copies of medical records and medical bills if his request is based on medical hardship.
