My husband was studying in Poland many years ago so he was exempted of the army, but he didn't finish what he was studying and came to the United States and is still here, not legal. He will be 29 this year.

Will he have any problem if we go to Poland or any other country of the UE next year because of the army?

They don't do that anymore in Poland. EU is not a problem. I was on "wanted list" few years ago when I left Poland, and traveled most of EU states with no problem.

My recommendation is to give a call or send a letter to his nearest WKU office and ask about his obligations from the past.
