Q: There will be any problem in my citizenship application if my spouse citizenship is denied for immigration mistakes?

Hi I want to apply for my citizenship. My spouse citizenship is denied for not submitting the RFE’s because her attorney told that not to submit. Because it can leads to her to removal proceeding. This situation will cause any problem in my citizenship application if I applied for citizenship . Because I got my Permanent residency through her petition in the first place when she applied for me.
