Hi everybody!

Not sure if it`s the right place to post... but anyway. Please, help me clarify one thing for my friend. She is here on J-1 and is about to marry a USC, whom she met a year ago and who had spent 5 years in jail, but now is out and working legally and just a normal person again. Would his criminal record prevent him from being eligible for a sponsorship (I-864)? Are they going to have any problems because of that?

Thank you.

Does he make enough to meet the poverty level for 2009?

I thought the 'criminal history' requirements focus on the foreign national who wants to get the visa/applies for AOS, not the US Citizen.

Yes, I think he meets the requirements. If not, I know they can find a co-sponsor, just in case.
