:P It seemed like forever, but Marlene received approval for lifting of conditions on April 2nd! Our application was received at VSC on May 9th, 2009.

Things have turned out well for us since we first began this entire immigration process back in the Fall of 2005. We are very happy together and wish everyone the same good fortune that we have had.
