Depending on the particular probation department guidelines and restrictions, most probation departments will allow a person on probation to transfer their probation to a different state if it is for verified work purposes, including that of your spouse. I would contact your probation officer or supervisor and inform them of your situation and provide them verifiable proof that your husband's job is transferring him and you should be fine.
