Any info is a big help!

Having Hepatitis B is generally not grounds for rejection even in economic classes. For most people it is asymptomatic. A small percentage of people require treatment, but a sponsored spouse is "excessive demand exempt" so even if it required treatment it would not be a bar to sponsored residency.

So, based upon the information you have provided, I would not expect this to be an issue that leads to rejection.
