been convicted of an offence, committed:
in the UK, and punishable with imprisonment for 12 months or more or
outside the UK but which, if it had been committed in the UK, would have
been punishable with imprisonment for 12 months or more.

and reasonable.
If this an application for spouse leave to enter under private/family life, it is very difficult to achieve this. You need to really meet the Financial and English requirements.Part 9 wrote:A320. Paragraphs 320 (except subparagraph (3), (10) and (11)) and 322 do not apply to an
application for entry clearance, leave to enter or leave to remain as a Family Member under
Appendix FM, and Part 9 (except for paragraph 322(1)) does not apply to an application for
leave to remain on the grounds of private life under paragraphs 276ADE-276DH.
