Are you applying for an immigrant visa on behalf of your spouse or are you the one who the petition is being filed for? If you are petitioning for your spouse, your convictions are not likely to bar  your spouse from receiving an immigrant visa. Your spouse should no about your criminal history though. If, however, the petition is being filed for you, stop. You will not be eligible for a green card. In addition, filing the petition could result in the initiation of removal proceedings against you.
