Personal history is not important. What is important is: can you afford to travel, where will you stay, how many days, what is your purpose of travel, do you have intention to return.
There are so many criminals roaming around the world.

It states on the application that you cannot get a passport if you're convicted of a felony.

That depends on the felony and if she has finished serving time. I don't think something like a DWI will keep her from getting one

If she was a FELON, she may be ELIGIBLE for a passport unless the charge was murder, in which case she's probably still in the nick!

What was she convicted for? A lot depends on her P/O requirements and what the conviction was for.
