Abstract: We prove that there is an algorithm which determines whether or not a given 2-polyhedron can be embedded into some integral homology 3-sphere. This is a corollary of the following main result. Let $M$ be a compact connected orientable 3-manifold with boundary. Denote $$, $$ or $G=Q$. If $H_1(M;G)cong{G}^k$ and $$ is a surface of genus $g$, then the minimal group $H_1(Q;G)$ for closed 3-manifolds $Q$ containing $M$ is isomorphic to $G^{k-g}$. Another corollary is that for a graph $L$ the minimal number $$ for closed orientable 3-manifolds $Q$ containing $Limes{S}^1$ is twice the orientable genus of the graph.
