Miller pled guilty to one count of not reporting an international monetary transaction and one count of concealing bankruptcy assets.
She faces up to 30 months in prison.
Prosecutors initially requested she spend five years in prison and pay $5 million in fines when she was charged with 20 counts of fraud in October 2015.
Miller asked the court to impose a "non-custodial sentence" that would give her probation, community service and/or a fine instead of prison time.
Her final day of sentencing will be February 24th.
