Your boyfriend should become a U.S. citizen, then petition you for your green card.

This is not an immigration question. In California, you should be able to attend public schools without a birth certificate.
Would immigration deny my husband if he has never filled out a tax return?
Not filing a tax return by itself is not a ground for denial.
If I apply for a fiance visa, does he have to apply for one in his country also?
Yes. He must to to an interview at U.S. Embassy in Pakistan to obtain a fiance visa.

If your husband is a U.S. citizen, then there should be no problem adjusting your status to a permanent resident.

Getting married to your fiance in the U.S. and filing for a U.S. permanent resident is the best.
