Halley's comet hasn't hit Earth yet, and there's no reason to believe it's about to.

It swings by at its closest about every 76th year.

The time it takes for a comet like Halley's to travel from its farthest point (aphelion) to its closest point to the Sun (perihelion) and back again can vary, but generally it takes about 76 years to make one orbit.

How long would it take a laser beam to hit mars from earth orbit?

It depends on where Earth and Mars are in their orbits. Since Mars takes longer to orbit the sun than Earth does the distance between the two planets varies considerably. When Earth and Mars are closest a beam of light will take about 4 minutes to reach Mars from Earth. When they are farthest (on opposite sides of the sun) a bean of light would take about 12 minutes.
