Shoshana has had quite a Journey, she should be pmed and asked a few things, she converted when she was 16 or something.

I thought she was always Jewish. So did she have a real Orthodox conversion? If she didn't, then she is not really Jewish.

She did, i'm sure and she was married to a Jewish man as well.

Was the Jewish husband her last husband, or was she married twice?

Well, according to my rabbi and from other rabbis that I have heard from, they will not convert anyone if they are living with:
1. A non-observant Jew...and or has no plans of becoming observant
2. A Gentile husband or wife
3. A prospective future with a gentile engagement ....the potential convert intends to marry a Gentile even after conversion
4. Lives with his or her Gentile family (which is my dreadful case!)

Well, my Rabbi is from Chabad, so they are strict but any Orthodox Rabbi should have high and strict standards with every convert.

Yes, I know some Jew who has a gentile girlfriend who is going to "convert" for him, but he is non-observant so the conversion is going to be a "reconstructionist conversion".  Whatever that is.  I imagine it's much like an Islamic conversion where you say "There is only Allah, and Mo' poophead is his prophet" 3 times except this one is like "I'm a Jew, I'm a Jew, I'm a Jew" and then you're set. 

I didn't know that you were converting to Judaism, Mills, mazal tov!
